About EasywalksEasywalks is a group for those who have enjoyed bushwalking in the past and for anyone interested in exploring the amazing tracks, trails and lookouts within about an hour's drive of Benalla.
Meeting monthly, the day will include a walk of about 8km, a picnic or cafe lunch and very often include sites of historical or botanical interest. In recent times trips have included an Italian ossuary, one of Sir John Monash's earliest bridges, and some great wildflower photography on the rocky ledges of Mt Pilot. Participants should be able to walk at a reasonable pace on well defined tracks, without a lot of climbing. Sturdy shoes are essential! You will also need to carry a small daypack with lunch, drinks etc as needed. While Covid and adverse weather have tested us to our limits, we have managed many memorable walks - and lots of talking! Meeting times1st Wednesday of the month from March.
Meeting times are usually at 9.30am, with the convenor notified of attendance three days prior. We leave from the carpark behind the Seniors Complex (U3A), Fawckner Drive, Benalla. Car sharing is usually available with a small cost. Please note - Meeting times depend on the season and weather conditions or as determined by the walk leader. Check the U3A Newsletter and confirm any details with the walk leader. Convenor and contact details
