Women’s Day Walks
Women’s Day Walks operate all year round. During the cooler months hikes are on bush trails, and in summer walks occur in urban and coastal areas. Wise Women Walking visits all the wonderful National Parks, Conservation Parks, and Forest Reserves that surround Adelaide. Each destination offers varying terrain and unique experiences. The trails include many that only the local residents know of, so they are quiet. Allowing time to connect with nature and spot wildlife. Women walking group sizes are small which means the walks are relaxed and there is minimal impact on the environment. The aim is to leave the trails cleaner, so you may see our Big Heart Adventures leaders picking up rubbish left by others. To view and register for our upcoming walks, head to the WWW Club website.
Weekenders For Women
