We're Going on a Bear Hunt

Bring the children down to the park for a swishy, swashy, splashy, sploshy, muddy walking adventure.

Fitness: Beginner.
Grade: Medium – Mixed terrain.
Distance: 1 km - ideal for little walkers and their families. 

Walk with us through the park to find the bear - we're not scared!

On the way, you will pass through swishy grass, a cold river (optional), squelchy mud, forest and a snowstorm (bubbles). 

Groups depart from the Walter Park Playground every 15 minutes between 11.30am and 1pm.

Gumboots are recommended. Pushchairs are okay, and mud and water can be avoided if necessary. No dogs please.

Children must be supervised. Participants and their dependents must take full responsibility for their safety, health, and
equipment while navigating varied terrain across public and private routes, wearing sturdy footwear and appropriate clothing, and carrying essential supplies, including water, food, and sun protection.
