SUMMARY:TW Balquhidder to Waitpinga
DESCRIPTION:Short road walk then after passing Balquhidder Station\, named by the wool brokering firm Harold and James McGregor after a village in Scotland which was the birthplace of famous outlaw Rob Roy McGregor\, we make our way down to the coast while taking in the views offered by the Southern Ocean.\n\nAs you come down to the beach be prepared to take your shoes off to cross the creek as it can be knee deep at times.\n\nThe walk takes us along both Parsons and Waitpinga Beaches and finishes at Waitpinga Beach carpark next to the Newland Head Conservation Park.\n\nThis is a spectacular walk and make sure you keep an eye out for dolphins and whales along this section of coast.\n\nThis walk is intended to serve as both an introduction to the Heysen Trail and a chance to catch up this section of the trail.  Rather than using a bus we will car-shuffle between the end and start of the walk.\n\nThere will be no support vehicle so please assess your level of fitness prior to joining this walk.\n\nIf the forecast maximum for Victor Harbor on Saturday evening is 28 or higher the event will be cancelled.\n\nBIOSECURITY MEASURES – Please ensure you thoroughly clean your footwear\, clothing\, walking poles and other equipment before and after each walk to remove all seeds\, dirt and other debris. Removed seeds should be bagged and disposed in a ‘to landfill’ garbage bin.

SUMMARY:Mount Bold Reservoir & Rocky Creek with E2E14
DESCRIPTION:E2E14 are on the path to get fit ready for their final year on the Heysen Trail and all FoHT members are welcome to join us!\n\nThis will be an 8:30am sharp start for an 19km Trail Walker loop\, a great way to get over your election hangover and clear your mind with a lovely walk in nature!\n\nThis walk starts near Rocky Creek Hut and winds it way through Kuitpo Forest North followed by a few kms on orienteering trails and a short off-trail section before making our way to Mount Bold Reservoir and some steep descents very challenging climbs but the views are amazing. After the half way mark the tough stuff is over and the second half is reasonably flat and goes through pine forest and bushland and again makes use of orienteering trails and goes off-trail so gaiters are a good idea for this walk.\n\nThere will a short break for morning tea as well a longer break for lunch.\n\nWalk Difficulty – Trail Walkers are demanding and suitable for experienced walkers who have walked regularly in various terrain consisting of long-distance trails with some steep inclines/declines\, irregular surface with loose uneven\, slippery base. They have a walking time of about 5 to 7 hours and will require a good degree of physical fitness.\n\n \n\nBIOSECURITY MEASURES – Please ensure you thoroughly clean your footwear\, clothing\, walking poles and other equipment before and after each walk to remove all seeds\, dirt and other debris. Removed seeds should be bagged and disposed in a ‘to landfill’ garbage bin.
