I am going to lead a series of day walks in Kosciuszko National Park, from Thursday 10th to Sunday 13th December. I will be based in Jindabyne, though walks will happen from there to a variety of locations. Day walks will be available on all four nominated days. The Sunday walk will finish by about 2pm to allow time to return to Sydney. Participants can attend all four days or any combination thereof. There is considerable suitable accommodation (camping or hard top) in Jindabyne. Accommodation and transport is to be organised independently by any participants. Contact leader for details. Walks will be at least grade 3.
