Catholic Bushwalking Club: Who are we?
    The Catholic Bushwalking Club Inc was formed in 1943 by a small group of Catholics with a common interest in bushwalking. The Club has since grown to over 400 members.
    The Club generally holds at least 1 walk each weekend and often holds walks midweek. Walks of varying grades are held, ranging from easy on-track walks through to challenging adventures in un-tracked country.

Catholic Bushwalking Club: Objectives
