26 members and visitors walked 7 kilometres of tracks through native bushland at the Eurobodalla Botanic Gardens last week.  The Gardens have a variety of walk tracks, which bushwalkers strung together to make a circuit from the Visitors Centre, past the Bird Hide and Sensory Garden, beside Rees Creek, around the lakes, over Deep Creek, and through Frog Hollow to the viewing platform overlooking Deep Creek Dam.

All tracks lead back to the Gardens Café and freshly made scones with lashings of jam and cream, whilst sitting in the sun watching the antics of the blue wrens and swamp hens, and enjoying the company of old and new friends.
