Discovery Walks are designed to connect you with the nature and community and are offered by Port Environment Centre in the cooler months of the year, with a range of walking lengths and locations.

We invite you to join us for a walk to Wara Wayingga - Tennyson Dunes.

Learn about this fragile ecosystem and the valued work of volunteers to educate and protect by restoring natural habitats and minimising threats to the plants and animals that call this place home.

This walk is approx. 5km over a 2 hour period and a good level of fitness is needed.

Initially we walk 30 mins one way to Wara Wayingga - Tennyson Dunes Conservation Reserve where we meet up with local volunteers from the Tennyson Dunes Group to learn about their current program and the biodiversity within the dunes. We return along a different route on dune trails back to Inlet Reserve.

What to wear/bring: - Comfortable walking shoes - Sun protection (hat, suncream, sunglasses) - Raincoat (if wet weather is forecast) - Filled water bottle - Snack/fruit - Backpack or bag to carry loose items - Personal items such as medications eg puffers - Camera (optional)
