We will meet up each day at Happy Wanderer in the morning and pool car transport  been 2 years since this event was last run - and 10 years since the first time

Participants are required to make their own booking arrangements – there is the range of options for cabin/onsite van accommodation. I've attached booking site details 

Although Oct10-Oct15 is the correct date range – you dont need to commit to the whole week - you could choose your own dates and the walks we do will accommodate all

We will be travelling to Wartook on the late arvo of Friday 10th  October.

Hopefully, people will consider carpooling and expense sharing as it's a 6 hour drive from Albury Wodonga.
