WRAG Walking Group – Tuesdays
This is one of WRAG’s most popular groups.
Come and enjoy the company of a friendly group of people, followed by an optional morning tea afterwards at selected locations.
Each street walk commences at 10 am and finishes at 11 am at a specified location in and around the flatter areas of Monash every Tuesday.
An orienteering-type walking challenge. Choose the best route and walk as far and fast as you wish. Walking and navigating around the flatter areas of the City of Monash and nearby areas is good physical and mental exercise.
Newcomers Welcome
You will be given a map with 25 control points marked. Your challenge is to find the best route to complete the walk before 11 am. We have more than 20 different maps, and use different start locations each week.
Skills to be achieved include finding the shortest route to give you the best score.
Come and enjoy the company of a friendly group of people, followed by an optional morning tea afterwards at selected locations.
