About the club

The Catholic Walking Club of Victoria has brought bushwalkers together since 1951. Its members come from Melbourne and country Victoria. The club aims to encourage walking and a greater appreciation of the outdoors, with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere for adults aged 18 and over.

What to expect

The program includes day walks, overnight base camps and backpacking trips, alongside cycling, winter ski touring and social activities. Day walks usually run on Sundays, with a monthly Wednesday walk and occasional Saturdays, often within a one-and-a-half to two-hour drive of Melbourne. Walks range from introductory outings to harder trips requiring fitness and experience; contact the leader to choose a suitable walk. Some equipment is available for hire.

Joining and costs

Choose an activity from the current club program and book with its leader at least two days beforehand. Let the leader know if you are new. Visitors must complete the acknowledgement of risks form before participating. Four trips within twelve months qualify a prospective member to apply for membership.

Standard single membership is $55 per year, couples membership is $85 and membership for religious orders is $45. Visitors pay $5 per walk. Shared travel, park entry and camping charges may be additional. Use the contact details on this listing for membership enquiries and current arrangements.

About the provider

Bushwalking VIC

As Victoria’s peak body for bushwalking, we represent all bushwalkers and bushwalking clubs in the state. Now an incorporated organisation, our roots go back to 1934 when the Federation of Victorian Walking Clubs was established. In 2006, a major restructure modernised the organisation and we adopted our current name to better reflect our key area of interest.

We work to unite members of Victoria’s diverse walking community – bushwalking club members, people from organisations with similar interests and individuals.
