Venue

This year’s Fling is at the Tullah Lakeside Lodge, located on the banks of Lake Rosebery in the village of Tullah. For those who have not been to Tullah, the Lodge is well signposted. Tullah is quite small and the Lodge is easy to find.

Tullah is an old mining town and adjacent Hydro village. The trails go through both parts and pass by relics from the mining era. This includes a small tourist railway, The Wee Georgie Wood.

The lodge is a former Hydro chalet. It is cozy and comfortable. The rooms are basic but comfortable and warm with their own shower and toilets. There is a function room attached to the Lodge which will be used by the club for the Saturday night dinner.

Trails

NDIS 5 km, walk 8 km and run 11 km (all approximate). All trails are on formed paths, gravel or sealed road and four wheel drive tracks. The trails are pretty flat. There is a fair bit of shiggy and water in some parts. Parts of the trail are a sheer delight to travel.
