MELB NORTH WEST - SS - Plenty Gorge Weeknight Walk

Come and join me for weeknight walk at :Plenty Gorge Parklands, I will be running this on alternate Tuesday evenings ,meeting at 25 Linacre Drive Bundoora . 

This is a lovely walk with some small hills on the well formed concrete path, this small section of Plenty Gorge Parklands is a great place to get outside and see some wildlife!

The path is shared with other walkers, cyclists, runners Kangaroos and Rabbits!

The best place to park is on Linacre drive between Mammalia Drive and Fitzjohns Dve. (there is a big silver sculpture on the corner of Mammalia Dve) I will wait on the street and will hopefully be wearing some new EYCZ t-shirt (need to pickup)

As always, this walk is paced for the slowest in the group and this work is perfect for beginners!
