27 Jul, Sat 7:30AM			Clifflines to the east of the Bicentennial Trail
Grade:5/6	Length	7km	300m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
There is an impressive ridge line that parallels the Bicentennial Trail between the Cape Horn ft and the Moffitts ft which I've admired on many occasions whilst walking along the BT. I've always thought about exploring this incredible looking ridge, and now's the time! This is an exploratory walk but you can expect to encounter the usual suspects, such as many pagodas, numerous slots, overhangs and caves and any of the other geological formations you would see within the Gardens of Stone National Park. If you are the adventurous type then this walk should appeal to you. Rock scrambling and off-track. Location: Gardens of Stone SCA Map: cullen bullen and Ben Bullen 89314S Limit: 12. View

Grade:3/6	Length	12km	550m	Sydney Branch

(Updated Details) Due to a track closure caused by a landslide the walk is changed to the following. Walk to the old Catalina Raceway and through The Gully to Katoomba Cascades. Walk to Echo Point via the Clifftop Walk and descend the Three Sisters. At the base, a short walk takes us to the Federal Pass and on to the Leura Forest. We climb up to the Amphitheatre Track and on to Leura Cascades. We are walking back to Katoomba. Good track. Lots of stairs. Location: Katoomba Map: Katoomba Limit: 12. View

27 Jul, Sat 10:00AM	Hidden Gem and Coal Waste in Royal NP
Grade:4/6		Southern Sydney Branch
14608
Hosted by Sutherland Shire Environment Centre. Walks will be in the RNP near the headwaters of the Hacking River which drains off the Illawarra escarpment. The infamous Peabody Metropolitan Colliery is located further up Camp Gully Creek. The mine has illegally discharged coal waste material into these waterways on numerous occasions in recent years. If you’re curious about the ongoing impacts on the ecosystem downstream, this is a good opportunity to see the evidence for yourself. Registration essential. Creek crossings. Wet feet. Location: Royal NP View

27 Jul, Sat 8:30AM			Jibbon Loop and Fishermen’s Cave
Grade:3/6	Length	9km		Southern Sydney Branch
Vera
We'll start from Cronulla Wharf to catch the 8.30 ferry to Bundeena. We'll be walking along the coast and drop by Aboriginal Rock Carvings at Jibbon Head and continue to walk along the coast to The Balconies. We'll do a little detour and walk along the narrow footpath to the cave (caves) that might be used during the Great Depression or as some people suggest, a cave for the fishermen. If the majority would like to stay longer for whale watching at the Balconies, we can do that as well. And we'll walk back to Bundeena wharf to catch the ferry back to Cronulla. Some rock hopping, slippery and mossy parts, some loose rock, uneven path and muddy parts and unclear overgrown parts. There might be a little exposure to the cave. Location: RNP Limit: 8. View
