SUMMARY:Walk The Yorke Balgowan to Port Rickaby
DESCRIPTION:The weekend will include two sections of Walk The Yorke.\n\nSection one 6 June 26 will be Balgowan to Port Victoria 21.5 km\n\nSection two 7 June 26 will be Port Victoria to Port Rickaby 21.5 km\n\nCarpooling from Port Victoria\, details provided closer to the walk.\n\nSection one takes us away from the coastline and weather dependant\, can be quite challenging at the start. However\, after a few two-wheel drive tracks which we cross through road reserves and the rich coastal vegetation of the Narungga Aboriginal Lands. Closer to Port Victoria\, we may encounter wombat burrows\, home to the southern hairy-nosed wombat\, South Australia’s faunal emblem. As we approach Port Victoria\, we approach the coastal trails again along the cliff tops.\n\nPort Victoria was once South Australia’s fourth largest port\, with a historic jetty\, which dates back to 1878.\n\n \n\nSection two is a day of walking from one jetty to another. This is one of the specialties of the Yorke Peninsular. Leaving Port Victoria we hug the cliff top before commencing 17 kms of beach walking. White dunes covered in green vegetation and striking orange granite formations of Renowden Rocks will be our back-drop. Pelicans and endangered hooded plovers are a feature of this beautiful section.\n\n \n\nAccommodation: There are cabins at the Port Victoria caravan park\, Port Rickaby caravan park and powered sites only at Balgowan.\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:Walk The Yorke Port Turton to Corney Point
DESCRIPTION:This event will involve car-pooling and be two sections over the weekend\n\nSection one: Point Turton to Point Souttar (13 km)\n\nA shorter section of the Walk the Yorke than we have been experiencing. Point Turton marks the ‘top of the foot” of the peninsular. What is noticeable\, compared to previous sections\, is the remoteness. Leaving Port Turton\, walking along a track with the ocean of one side and farmland of the other. A notable landmark will be The Drain\, an engineering marvel that 20 men dug in the early 1900s. Closer to Point Souttar we will find ourselves amongst she-oaks and scrubland.\n\nSection two: Point Souttar to Corney Point (21km)\n\nWeaving onto and off of the beach\, expect the unexpected. The day’s experience will depend on the weather; the area is known for its rains\, so bring your rain jacket. This area is full of history\, with Captain Flinders experienced the howling dogs. Likely the story behind the naming of the Howling Dog Tavern we will end our day at in Corney Point.\n\n \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.
