Club Night at Patagonia Store – Hiking in Norway: Rhondane National Park

Sunday Bus: Lake Eildon Panorama - 13km/16km - 8 Nov

**WALK DESCRIPTION:** Come join 25+ of our members on these walks in the hills around Lake Eildon, which contain many good walking opportunities. This new Sunday walk variation starts on the higher hills for a more relaxed downhill experience with impressive views across the lake before walking along the shoreline where a scenic, shady, gently undulating Grade 4 track will guide us back to the waiting bus at Wallaby Bay carpark. Both walks capture the essence of walking in the Eildon National Park, starting from the same bus drop-off point and following a ridge-line track with impressive views of the surrounding hills and Lake Eildon. After descending to the lower levels the longer walk includes a side-trip to Stones Outstation, an historic hut, before following the same route as the shorter walk around the lake edge. Please carry at least 2 litres of water and bring a change of shoes for the trip back. . **DISTANCE(S):** 13km and 16km . **TOTAL ASCENT(S):** 350m Rise and 400m Rise . **GRADINGS:** Easy/Medium and Medium **Easy/Medium (E/M):** More consistent walking, mostly on tracks or in open country, but with some significant hills, probably some stretches of light scrub. Possibility of some rock hopping. Distances up to 19km but may be much shorter depending on the difficulty of the terrain. Reasonable lunch and rest stops. **Medium (M):** Consistent walking on tracks or in open bushland, usually with patches of thicker scrub, several moderate climbs, and/or rock hopping.
