Join me for a 2-day, 20 km coastal hike north of Batemans Bay, along the beautiful Murramarang South Coast Walk (modified for easier access to campgrounds).

Schedule:

  • Departure: Meet in front of ANU Sport at 6:00 AM on Saturday, 24 January. We’ll drive from Canberra to South Durras beach to start the hike.
  • Day 1: Walk approximately 12km and camp overnight at Oaky Beach Campground.
  • Day 2: Continue the hike for 8km to Maloneys Beach, then drive back to Canberra, aiming to return to ANU Sport before 6PM.
  • Note: A car shuffle will be required at the end of the hike (approximately 40 minutes).

Important Details:

  • This is a coastal walk, so expect sandy sections and limited shade.
  • Participants must be self-sufficient hikers.
  • This trip is intended as a starting point for longer multi-day hikes I plan to organise later this year.

What to Bring

  • At least 3 litres per day.
  • 2 lunches, 1 dinner, 1 breakfast, plus snacks.
  • Camping gear.
  • Sunscreen and hat
  • Proper hiking shoes.
  • Swimwear and towels (we may take breaks for a swim in the ocean

 

I’ll create a Messenger chat group to coordinate travel and logistics. We will have a pre-trip meeting on 14th on Jan.
