GLTBQ+ bushwalk, Sat 7 June

 

GLBTQ+ bushwalk – Saturday, 7 June


Join us for this bushwalk as part of the Kings Birthday weekend festivities!

Hosted by Bush Lemons.  All welcome (including dogs on leads)!

We will walk the old fire trails and tracks at Ngula Bulgarabang Regional Park, just outside Katoomba, and end up at the Megalong Head Lookout for morning tea, with it’s beautiful views over the Megalong Valley.  The fire trails make this easy walking and there is a short but fairly easy walk down a single file track to the lookout.  All up the walk will be about 6km.

This area was bought from private ownership by the State Government in 2019 and the regional park was created to keep it safe for the animals and plants, walkers, rock climbers and explorers.  It is the last remaining undeveloped peninsula-plateau in the upper Blue Mountains.  It has a huge variety of flora and fauna, tall eucalypt forests, significant Aboriginal heritage, as well as the beautiful views.

Meet:  10am on Saturday, 7 June, at the locked gate at the end of Pulpit Hill Road (turn off the highway at the Explorers Tree).

Bring: Some drinking water, a snack for morning tea, appropriate footwear.  And please, wear your rainbow finery! Scarves, feather boas, shimmery shorts etc!!


Book:  It’s a good idea to book in for the walk in case it gets cancelled or changed due to the weather:  Jocelyn - bushscout@bigpond or 0414 572991

 

This will be a nice leisurely walk so you will still have enough energy to visit the Bent Art Exhibition in Katoomba afterwards, and also to boogie the night away at the Three Sisters Blackheath Disco on Saturday night!
