Lovers Walk and Santa Casa Beach - Queenscliff + BEST BURGERS ON THE BELLARINE!

Escaping Your Comfort Zone - Side by Side Nature Walks is for women who want chilled out, short and slow adventures. We don’t care about size, speed or fitness. We go slow, we go short, we leave no one behind. It’s about fun in the outdoors, because we can!  These walks are part of an intergenerational program, building connections between women aged 18-30 and women aged 55+.

ABOUT LOVERS WALK & SANTA CASA BEACH
This walk combines two of Queenscliff’s most loved spots, the shady, sheltered Lovers Walk path, and the golden sands of Santa Casa Beach. We’ll enjoy a mix of coastal views, peaceful tree-lined tracks, and the calm bay waters lapping the shore. With plenty of time to pause, chat, and take in the scenery, this is a gentle seaside wander that shows off the quieter side of Queenscliff’s coastline.

Fun Fact:  Richelle grew up in Queenscliff, so as usual will have some stories!

FOOD + CUPPAS
After the walk, the burger place will be OPEN!  We will pre-order our burgers so we are not waiting too long (please comment with your order by the Friday)- own cost.  We will take them back down the beach and eat them overlooking the water. (Here's a menu I found on Google, I will get a better updated menu before the day so you can choose from the latest selection)

• Water: at least 1L (more if it’s hot)
• Clothes: comfy, with layers you can add/remove

CARPOOLING
Carpooling is a great way to save car park space, cut down our environmental footprint, and travel with new friends. Many of us come from similar areas, so please drop a comment in the chat if you can offer a lift or need one.  It's great to offer a small contribution (or even a coffee) to your driver.
