We had 26 members at Kahane Lodge plus three more at Charlotte Pass.
Our walks included the Porcupine Trail (with lunch overlooking the Alpine way), the Rennix Track, an ‘off-piste’ walk to the Alpine Eyre Café via the “top of the quad”, Olympic T-Bar and Mt Perisher (thanks to Steve and Cathy Smith for the excellent leadership). Ron Giles also led us on a walk from Charlotte Pass to the old restaurant.
Charlotte Pass Resort was offering free rides on the Stillwell Chair from 10am to 3pm which made the walking there a very enjoyable option. What’s more, Stillwell Hotel was open for rehydration! It makes the Pass a very attractive option for a few quite days in the mountains.
This weekend away would rank as one of the best Easter outings we’ve had - blue sky, 25-degree days and no wind.
The mountains are becoming very popular as an Easter destination, but there are still great little-known walk options.
Another great Easter week-end with good company and excellent food.
Here are two map images of a couple of our activities. First Mt Perisher, then Rennix walk.
