We welcome you to trial a Sunrise Bushwalk with us. During the year our group continually runs a fundraiser for cancer research. For every new participant, our club will double the $10.00 participation subscription/donation in aid of cancer research.

Our early morning bushwalks which start at 7.30am are sure to get your endorphins excited and get you kinetically energised for the rest of the day. It's nature's drug that helps with health and well-being. It can also decrease the risk of heart disease and some cancers among other things.

There too, is new research that shows our style of Sunrise events can keep you younger by lengthening the longevity of life cycle. One day you may still be around and have the stamina to play with your Great Grandkids.

If you would like to feel yourger, get healthier and have fun, then simply register below, trial a Sunrise, meet and greet our members then if you choose, join our members for morning tea afterwards.

If you enjoy the event you may choose to continue on, join up as a full member and if not, you may choose to move away.

The choice is entirely yours.... You are under no obligation! The bottom line though, is that your participation has given cancer research a $20.00 boost towards finding a cure, and in advance, thank you for your participation and the contribution you have made towards our fundraing campaign.

Why It’s Never Too Late to Get Moving.... And, It Is Fun Too!

Research has found that walking speed is linked with heart health and life's longevity. In particular, middle-aged adults who walk at a slow pace were twice as likely to die from heart disease compared with their fast-walking peers. The research is clear, exercise can improve your heart health, even if you haven’t laced up your sneakers in years. If you have been thinking about starting a walk exercise program, there is no better time to begin than today.

 01.  Sunrise: Spring Gully

The adventure seekers will love this one! This Sunrise will certainly get you amongst it and onto trails rarely undertaken by other bushwalkers. The walk follows the many ancient foot pads that crisscross the park between Wahroonga, Asquith and Mount Colah. Join us as we journey the ever-changing woodlands within this diverse area of heathlands and tall open Eucalypt forests in the gullies. The journey will also test your skill as you make a number of creek crossings (all dry unless you decide to fall in) and take you through a 100meter tunnel which allows us access to the parklands on either side of the Pacific Motorway. Prerequisite: Headtorch or phone torch. Meet at Asquith for a 7.30am departure. Distance is approximately 6.5km. Expected event finish time is 9.50am.

​

02.  Sunrise: Balls Head

Balls Head Reserve in Waverton, Sydney has a rich history and was frequently used by the local Aboriginal community prior to 1916 and still has historic art sites and rock engravings to this day. The reserve was named after Lieutenant Henry Lidgbird Ball, a commander of the First Fleet of 1788. In 1912, the Australian Army claimed the land and built a Quarantine Depot to service boats operating from Quarantine Station at North Head. The land has now become a public parkland offering stunning views over Sydney Harbour and the harbour bridge. The parkland with its natural beauty offers an interesting history and vantage point overlooking the Sydney skyline. Meet at Waverton for a 7.30am departure. Distance approximately 7km. Expected finish time is 10.00am.

​

03.  Saturday 05 April   Sunrise: Beyond Sheldon Forest

In the back of Turramurra, you will discover a number of tracks that meanders through the beautiful bushland of Sheldon Forest and Rofe Park, along ridge tops, through open forest on the hill slopes and down to the creek side that runs through its beautiful valley. Sheldon Forest is of high conservation status because it contains some of the last remnants of the endangered ecological communities Sydney Turpentine Ironbark Forest and Blue Gum High Forest. This ‘must do walk’ will take us through these rainforest environs for the most part capturing beautiful flowing streams that boast a number of small waterfalls. The forest too, has an abundance of native birdlife. Their calls create a pleasant atmosphere for our early morning sunrise. Meet at Turramurra for a 7.30am departure. Distance approximately 7km. Expected finish time is 9.45am.
