Farrer Ridge Woodland - Bubs in the Bush

Service Description

Bubs in the Bush is a baby-wearing bush walk for mums. Join us in exploring Farrer Ridge Woodland Reserve, part of Canberra Nature Park, is a 185 hectare reserve featuring a gentle ridge forming a boundary between the Woden and Tuggeranong valleys. The reserve protects endangered Yellow Box-Blakely’s Red Gum Grassy Woodland and rocky areas support the nationally vulnerable Pink-tailed Worm-lizard. We’ll be walking a 4.2km loop trail through the reserve and be rewarded with views across Canberra. Our Bubs in the Bush sessions visit a different location each week, helping you to fast track your discoveries of walks and nature reserves that are tucked away in suburbia and surrounds. We aim to find walks of about 3-4kms - that will take about 60 minutes to walk. Walks aren't chosen for their pram-friendliness, which means we have more options of which trail to use. Being active helps you to feel good, boosts your energy, and reduces stress. Come and join us, and make being active in the bush part of your lifestyle. MAXIMUM NUMBERS: Sessions are limited so please book a spot via the MEGA app and update your attendance if you can no longer make it. WHERE TO MEET: The dirt car park behind ACT Parks and Conservation Service, Athllon Drive Depot. After turning off Athllon Drive, you’ll go through the main gates which are locked after 4pm. Keep driving up the service road and we’ll park outside of the locked gate for entry into Farrer Ridge Woodland Reserve. Check the GPS point 35°22'56.1"S 149°05’46.6"E to get your bearings.
