The Darwin Bushwalking Club is a recreational club, run on a voluntary basis by an elected committee for the benefit of its members. The Club organises one-day, weekend or longer walks throughout the year – mostly around Darwin, or in Top End parks. It meets socially at various venues and sometimes organises other outdoor activities such as canoeing and bicycle riding.
New members are welcome!!!
The Darwin Bushwalking Club is administered by a committee with elected positions of President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and four ordinary committee members. The Committee meets a minimum of four times a year.
