We will be helping to construct and maintain tracks in the Tallaganda State Forest. These tracks will make the Tallaganda State Forest more accessible, allowing keen bushwalkers to experience the Forest, and minimise impacts of multiple informal trails.
By constructing new walking tracks in the Forest we will be helping visitors to enjoy the different types of vegetation and have a go at spotting the animals and birds that live there.
There’s a diverse range of forest types in the area, including moist forest, dry forest, and smaller amounts of low open forest. The Forest is home to a variety of native animals including echidnas, spotted –tail quolls, sugar gliders, and flame robins.
We will also be doing some weeding, pruning, and building to maintain pre-existing tracks.
What you can expect:
- being in the great outdoors with nice people
- Building something of value
- Walking beautiful forests
- Being involved in a unique and exciting opportunity to build a bush walking track
- Recognition of your efforts
Essential requirements:
- High level of fitness
- Experience getting out in the bush, e.g. bushwalking, mountain biking camping etc.
- Strong work ethic and desire to get stuck in to some tough and rewarding activity
