Carry a fig leaf (or shorts) in case of a very unlikely encounter with picnickers in the picnic ground! - access is by 4WD only.Activity Description:Enjoy walking nude through the forest to reach the Moorabool River (East Branch) for a relaxed lunch and stroll along the picturesque riverside. Although it's the end of summer, water is still flowing nicely along the river.We've discovered the perfect weather for nude bushwalking is 20C and sunny, which we had on our last bushwalk. Even down to 17C is OK - you keep quite warm while walking. So we're hoping for a perfect autumn day!Afternoon Tea/Drinks:Depending on the weather we can have cool drinks at the Commercial Hotel 151 Inglis St Ballan, or coffee and cakes at Xiu's Cafe 131 Inglis St Ballan.RSVP:Russell W preferably by Thursday 23th April on 0421 730 686 or russjw2005@yahoo.com.au or online at
