September Outing - Flinders Plum Picnic Area

Picnic Area
Meet: at the Flinders Plum Picnic Area at 8.30 for a 9 a.m. start: Saturday, 16th September 2017. Peak Crossing locality.

Parking is limited so if you can arrange to take someone with you in your car it would
help.

The picnic area has very good BBQ facilities shelter shed and a toilet but it’s a good idea to bring a chair as other day visitors share this spot.

Activities: Walking along the mostly flat Sandy Creek Track, approximately 3.5 km return The creek last month was mostly dry but there were some pools of water around. Even with the dryness the birds were very vocal. There should be some flowering shrubs and plants in September along the creek walk.

There are other walks for the very fit, all start from the picnic area. Maps show distances, but the main walk for us is the Sandy Creek track.

We will take morning tea and be back at the picnic ground for lunch and socialize.

Upon arrival – Please sign the Attendance Book and pay your Excursion Fee of $2 per participant.
