Activity Details

Introduction:
A great opportunity to enjoy bushwalking with friends. Due to the size of the Club many people know each other and welcome newcomers to the group.


The Catholic Walking Club of Victoria (CWCV) was founded in 1951 and has for its objectives the encouragement of bushwalking and allied activities and the fostering of a greater love of the outdoors.

Membership is open to anyone eighteen years of age and over and actively interested in bushwalking in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

A bi-monthly Walks Program promotes day, weekend and extended bushwalking, ski touring and cycling trips in varied country to encourage members to have a wider appreciation and better understanding of the wild and natural environment.

It would be unusual to find a weekend during the year which didn't have a club activity and we also offer Wednesday walks once a month.  Walk gradings range from easy to hard to cater for all levels of ability.

The Club also participates in activities which benefit the wider community, such as tree planting and track clearing.

A range of equipment is available for hire for people new to bushwalking.


Bushwalking Activities: Day Walks, Weekend Backpack Walks, Extended Backpack Walks, Base Camp Walks
Other Outdoor Activities: Cycling / Mountain Biking, Snow Skiing

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.

Thinking of hiking/bushwalking groups?

Social hiking or bushwalking groups can be organized by a variety of organizations, including local parks and recreation departments, hiking clubs, and online communities.

The benefits of joining a social hiking group are numerous. For one, it can provide a sense of community and motivation, as you have the support and encouragement of others to help you stick to your hiking routine. Hiking groups can also be a great way to meet new people and make new friends, especially if you are new to an area or looking to expand your social circle.

In terms of structure, social hiking groups can vary. Some groups may have a designated leader who plans the route and sets the pace, while others may be more informal, with participants simply showing up and hiking together. Some groups may meet on a regular basis, such as once a week, while others may be more sporadic.
