Naturist Walk & Swim - Djerriwarrh Reservoir, Toolern Vale
About this event
(There have been two cancellations so there are still two tickets available - 3.30pm on 15/1/21.)
A naturist walk in a scenic, remote location not too far from Melbourne.
GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Medium, approximately 9 km circuit walk. About 3 hours walking time plus 1 hour lunch and swim stop. We walk on 4WD tracks, single lane walking trails and kangaroo pads. About 3 km is on kangaroo pads and the walking speed is quite slow. There are some moderate hills but they are not that long.
ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
This event is for Naturists. A lovely remote spot, not far from Melbourne where we can shed our clothes and enjoy naturist walking and swimming. The reservoir is quite a large body of water and there is plenty of water there all year round. The reservoir is hidden in the Pyrete Forest and is most picturesque.
We have visited this reservoir two or three times before and are hoping to find a different way in to it this time.
Afternoon Snacks and Drinks: After the walk we will return to the Toolern Vale General Store to collect the cars that we didn't take to the start of the walk. If desired, we can have a cool off drink or coffee there, or if some would prefer we could drive to Melton for a beer or coffee at Mac's Hotel, 322 to 332 High St, Melton (11 km and 10 minutes drive from Toolern Vale).
