1/2 day Hike to Karloo Pools. Suitable for OAS 1-3, Joeys welcome with an accompanying adult - Cubs, Scouts, Venturers, Introduction to bushwalking.
Additional Information

3-4hr bushwalk in the Royal National Park, from Heathcote Station to Karloo Pool, and return (approx 6km total).

Meeting in the car park behind Heatcote station at 9am.

We will follow the Karloo walking track down to Karloo Pools (approx half way), bring a snack/morning tea, and your swimmers and a towel if it is a warm day, as we will stop at the pool for a quick dip before returning back up the Karloo walking track.

There is no water or toilets at Karloo Pools so carry at least 1L per person, and use the facilities before we leave Heathcote station.

We aim to return to the car park behind Heathcote station by 1pm.
