BEGINNERS hike – Rodriguez pass

WOOO HIKING!

This is one of my FAVOURITE hikes in the blue mountains and I know you’re going to love it too! This walk weaves it’s  way down into the Gross valley, revealing cliff walks, amazing flora, waterfalls, swims and much more! This 6-7 hour walk is one of the best ways to explore what the blue mountains has to offer!!

Ok, down to business.

WHAT TO BRING:

• WATER – Bring at least 2 Litres of water. Believe me you’ll need it! We pass a few rivers so if you’re game you can refill.
• CLOTHING – Be logical!! You’ll get hot hiking so wear light clothing. However you’ll also want to bring a jumper in case the weather turns bad. Wear appropriate, comfortable shoes like joggers or hiking shoes. A hat is also a good idea.
• SUNSCREEN – The Australian sun is brutal. You’ll want to reapply every few hours.
• FOOD – You will need to bring lunch as well as a few snacks. we’ll be doing a lot of exercise so you’ll need food for energy. Especially to get up the final stairs (;
• SWIMMERS – there are plenty of places to jump in and cool off.
• HEAD TORCH – If you have one please bring it! We will almost definitely get out before dark but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

PLAN

• We will be leaving the campsite at 8:30 AM. If you are not ready to leave by then you will be left behind to help cook (;
  We will be carpooling so if you have a car please bring it as we’ll need as many as we can get (:

That’s pretty much it!! If you have any questions please feel free to text me, email me or FB message me (: Hope to see you all bright and early on Saturday!
