Members and guests who reside in Victoria will need a border crossing permit, if required.
Normal social distancing rules will apply. If 1.5m cannot be maintained then a mask needs to be worn; particularly if car pooling is used.
Meet at the Kinross Woolshed at 8am. This is a modified version of part 3. It will be a round trip and NO carpooling required.
About an 8km walk; firstly along a bike/walking path and then the grassy roadside of Table Top Rd for 4km. We then return via the 4km Hume & Hovell Track through the TSR. Very colourful flower display at the moment and a gorge. Some long grass alongside the track so long pants and/or gaiters would be advised.
Toilets available at the Kinross Woolshed.
dogs OK
Bring hat, water and a morning tea snack. Coffee and cake at Kinross or Thurgoona.
Next week could be a modified version of part 5 of the Hume & Hovell. We will bypass part 4.
