Perfect sunny day for the walk loops around the Wetland, Red Gum, Burrawang, Link and Lillypilly Tracks which form part of the largest remaining stand of coastal rainforest on the Central Coast.
This was a very pleasant wander through rainforest, wetlands and native bush and views over Tuggerah Lake were enjoyed by all. The highlights were the many tall trees with much lively conflicting banter held regarding the Cabbage Tree Palm tree ferns in abundance in the area.
Morning tea was taken at a pleasant table lookout spot with lunch in a rather dubious (but best available) place by the lake watching the waves roll in.
Claude upped the ante for coffee venues by introducing us to the 5 star Magenta Shores Golf and Country Club Resort.
