Blue Mountains Private Tours in Spring 2017
We are pleased to offer Blue Mountains Private Tours for 2017 Spring below focusing on a choice between classic Blue Mountains hikes, road touring and new cool climate gardens through spring.
Please note that while Nature Trail undergoes development and is not yet ready to operate commercially. The following tours are undertaken as recces and practice trips and are available to Friends of Nature Trail.
These tours are also available to TAFE students of Outdoor Recreation and to TAFE students of Guiding, on application.
Participants need to be 18 years of age or older, have a good level of fitness, self-cater, and prepay any direct costs specified for a given trip – i.e. fuel share, access fees, lunch, snacks, water. Each participant needs to also pre-sign a Tour Agreement.
We expect to be offering commercial tours in 2018, once we purchase a 4WD vehicle and have the necessary insurances and licensing in place.
If you are interested in participating on any of these walking tours on a non-commercial basis, please CONTACT US to discuss as early as possible. Participant numbers are strictly limited to a maximum of 6 and bookings are accepted on a first come basis.
