The Southern Highlands Bushwalkers Inc is an outdoor activities club located in the Mittagong, Bowral, Berrima area of the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. With a mission to develop friendships through exploring natural wilderness and National Parks, the club aims to plan activities that cater to both individuals and families.
The club, which was originally formed in 1990 as the Highland Adventurers and later changed its name to Southern Highlands Bushwalkers Inc in 1994, has seen its membership grow to about 60 members. These members come from various locations, ranging from Palm Beach in the north to Goulburn in the south.
The Southern Highlands area offers a diverse range of flora and fauna, as well as access to numerous national parks and forested areas. The terrain in this area is mostly undulating to steep, with very few easy walks available. As a result, a reasonable level of fitness is required to participate in the club's activities.
The region is known for its unique and beautiful landscapes, featuring windblown sandstone formations, breathtaking views from ridges, and lush cool rainforests. Exploring the area may also involve off-track walking through thick vegetation, which requires experience and good navigation skills.
The Southern Highlands Bushwalkers Inc primarily offers day walks that range from moderately easy to strenuous. The club also organises overnight backpacking hikes, car camp out weekends, and occasional bus trips to more distant destinations.
For those interested in joining the club, they can visit the website to find more information about upcoming walks, gear recommendations, bushwalking issues, safety guidelines, and contact information.
Overall, the Southern Highlands Bushwalkers Inc provides a welcoming and adventurous community for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy exploring the natural beauty and wilderness of the Southern Highlands region.
