DAY HIKE-Waratah to Porters Pass Day HIke, Blue Mountain
Saturday 19th September 8 am

HIKEFit Coach: Sonia

We have chosen 2 unique hikes for this Spring Day - both in Blackheath

Our 1st Hike , is no so much about the hiking but about the destination. This walk is primarily along a firetrail , however , this hike has been chosen to be done in spring, as you will encounter the largest number of waratahs in one hike, I counted over 400 waratah last year and that was at the end of the season .

But even better, once you get to the end - another WOW factor happens. Magnificent views of Hanging Rock and the Grose Wilderness. This is an easy 10km walk. We visit Baltzer Lookout first, then we head to Hanging Rock.

Following this hike we will head into Blackheath for a picnic lunch, supplied by Sterling Fitness

Hike 2 is a new one for Sterling Fitness, exploring porters pass
This is an enjoyable and fulfilling circuit within Porter's Pass Recreational Reserve. Although short, this trail presents plenty of challenges. The terrain has a lot of variety, from waterfalls to steep rocky areas, rainforests and bush, plus stunning valley views. Highlights of the trail include Lambert's Lookout (views), Centennial Glen, and Fort Rock.

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.
