Walking in a winter wonderland

What better way to spend a sunny morning than strolling through Noosa’s own Botanic Gardens.

You can join an enthusiastic group of gardena aficionados at this Sunday’s Winter Guided Walk (18 July ) starting at 9am.

Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens will greet you at the main shelter shed adjacent to the lower and middle car parks and guide you on a free, one hour tour.

This is their winter walk, one of four seasonal walks, and among the highlights are the beautiful Hong Kong Rose and the Golden Bouquet Tree.

Enjoy the lushness of the Shade Garden and hear some interesting facts about microbats.

You can bring your dog along too – but only on a leash.

Wear sensible shoes and bring water, a hat and insect repellent.

Noosa Botanic Gardens are on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy township.

For more information about the gardens and other upcoming events go to noosabotanicgardensfriends.com
