What beautiful weather for our walk today!
17 of us gathered at Wombin Reserve & followed a track beside a small creek to Swain Gardens – an attractive English garden.
All ready and waiting at Wombin Reserve
We followed a rather rough track down through Seven Little Australians Reserve, named after the book, whose author, Ethel Turner, lived in Lindfield as she was writing it.

We were blessed to have the assistance of Claude & Pragati who were a great help assisting us over some very large rocks on our way up the steep hill.
After lunch at the top we continued on and were very pleased to relax at the Killa Brew café in Koola Avenue where they made us very welcome!

Another couple of kilometres of street walking brought us back to our cars at the Wombin Reserve.
Definitely the top end of a Regular Walk most of us thought, however we will all sleep very well tonight I think!
