Nomads Outdoors Group – Garfield Water Wheel to the Welsh Village, The ‘Rez’
December 7
Travel by train or car to Castlemaine, and enjoy a day walk in the historic Castlemaine Diggings National Heritage Park and your BYO picnic lunch. We will also invite members of ‘The Alluvians’, Castlemaine’s gay men’s social group to join the walk.
GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Grade 3: Medium walking – approximately 10 km circuit walk on paths that are at times rocky and steep (graded according to the AWTGS: Australian Walking Tracks Grading System).
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: Meeting at 10:31am outside the Midland Hotel (2 Templeton Street, cnr Templeton & Kennedy Streets) just opposite the Castlemaine Station car park. If you are travelling to Castlemaine by train, PLEASE tick the ‘public transport’ option when you register.
We introduce ourselves and then car-share with those who have driven from Melbourne or are Castlemaine locals. If there are insufficient cars, then a taxi mini bus will be pre-booked (small extra shared cost). There are NO lunch shops near the railway station, so you will need to bring your lunch, snacks and water with you.
