Wednesday Night Social
Glenbrook dirt carpark opposite the shops.
Glenbrook National Park, nothing too hard.
GNR
Wisemans Ferry - by the East ferry crossing (turn right bottom of the hill). There is a good parking area by the kiosk here.
I'm having a spin out here tomorrow morning - I have a curfew to be back in town by 12pm so planning on doing GNR, then the track up behind the Buddhist retreat, up over the hill and down Donny's track, along the bottom of the valley, up Simpson's track and home down GNR and Finches line. At a reasonable pace - it takes me about 50mins from the ferry to the the intersection of GNR and the Western Access track so not race pace but no mucking around. If anyone feels like a decent hit out in the morning feel free to come along.

A bit of everything on this one, a bit of climbing involved so not really newbie friendly. What goes up must come down though
