Today's HIKEFit program explores parts of Castle Cove… Although it feels like a flat walk, there are some good ups and downs. You can complete 8 km or the full 11 km and get around 400m in elevation.
We will start at the steps heading into Scotts Creek. After passing the creek, we find a management for about 500 metres. Then we are back into the bush heading to FigTree Cove via the North Arm walking track.
Don't forget to stop and take in the spectacular water views. This is an out and back track. After we return to the cars, if it’s not too hot, there's always a loop of Harold Reid reserve for that 3 km.

Who would believe there is a fabulous bush walk in Chatswood? That's why it is called Chatswood Charms, a delightful hike in the bushy area of Chatswood West. We find creeks, waterfalls, fabulous birdlife and lots of steps.
It is easy to take a wrong turn. I hear many stories of people losing their way, so ensure you keep up with the leader, or you will need to get an Uber back to the car!

Sunday 10th May 7 am
Hike Coach : Sonia
HIKEFit will meet around 19 Kitchener St, St Ives; and we will walk around the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Gardens.
The beauty of this hike is you hike following different paths with various difficulties and you can stop at any point if you've had enough hills :) For those who want that little extra, I can add plenty of tough hills. I will choose the path difficulty depending upon who signs up :)
Don’t be fooled by the surroundings as it is not a TYPICAL Garden. We are going to do plenty of different loops in this hike. Your hikes might be 5 km, 7 km or even 9 km ... depending on when you feel like you've had enough, allow 2.5hours for the Hike and stretching.
