Morning walk starting from Stiggants Reserve in Stiggant St,Mel 23 D12, walking across the road to Whipstick Gully. Steady climb up Bence track then along dirt roads & tracks past the cemetery to Pound Bend before returning along the river. Expect it to be wet & muddy so walking poles helpful.Hope to finish by 12.30pm so only need morning tea but optional to take lunch to eat before going home.
