The weekend walk for Bushwalkers was a 6km Easy circuit near Durras Lake at North Durras and easily completed before lunch.

We started at the entrance to Lake Durras which is currently open to the ocean, so the Lake is tidal at the moment. Skirting the North Durras caravan parks and avoiding the kangaroos lying all over the grass, we took the track inland which runs along one arm of the Lake shore. The track then turns away from the lake and heads to the shore of a different arm, where we stopped for a break and watched the fish jump and the birds feed.

The return track is lined with ferns and very pretty. There was a lot of small types of fungi popping up in the wet leaf litter. Back at the Lake entrance we admired the views north along North Durras beach to Point Upright before heading home.
