Last Tuesday we had perfect weather for a walk and seventeen of us took advantage of it. Erica and Trevor had planned a walk along the Torrens in the West Beach/ Underdale area. Erica led the walk (Trevor still sitting out due to injury).
The track down that end of the Torrens is a really attractive track. We were able to stay mostly off of the bike paths and closer to the water.
Frogs greeted us down the West Beach end of the walk in the wetlands area which abuts Burbridge road.
There are a good number of areas suitable for stops, and fairly well spaced pedestrian bridges across the Torrens for turnarounds if required.
We started at the carpark by the Henley Sailing Club (end of Burbridge Road)
and walked up on the north and back on the south side of the Torrens (mostly).
We enjoyed seeing the local community garden in Fulham Gardens
and the bike tools on a pole for the bike riders to use.
The walk was about 15km in length.
Alexandra at the Beach Break cafe agreed to open specially for us, and managed our order pretty well, considering that she was just trying to recover form an onslaught of 15 unexpected customers who had given her no warning. It was informal, but the coffee was excellent I’m told.
