Join us for a massive **35km coastal challenge over Eastern Beaches** as we take on our unofficial attempt of the scenic 'Bloody Long Walk' (Sydney East route). Originally hosted by the Mito Foundation each November, we are tackling this spectacular coastal track our own way. This is a demanding, long-distance trek requiring high fitness and endurance, but the world-class ocean views are worth every step. For reference on the official event route, you can check here: [https://www.bloodylongwalk.com.au/lp/sydney-east/](https://www.bloodylongwalk.com.au/lp/sydney-east/) **Before you RSVP, be sure to read the full description:** * **Difficulty** **and Terrain:** Hard (for highly fit, experienced hikers only). Expect a massive 35km distance requiring a steady pace. The terrain features a diverse mix of coastal boardwalks, beach walking (sand), paved streets, stairs, and multiple headland ascents. * **Start:** 8:30 AM sharp at Pioneers Park (off Anzac Pde, near the Hillary Pde bus stop). Please arrive a few minutes early. **Finish:** Circular Quay (followed by an optional, well-earned dinner for those who go the distance!). * **Route:** We will start at Pioneers Park and head down to Maroubra Beach, making our way north through Coogee and up to Bondi. From there, we join the famous coastal trail (which we recently completed from the opposite direction!), passing the stunning Diamond Bay and Hornby Lighthouse at Watsons Bay. We will then sweep through Rose Bay and past Mrs Macquarie's Chair before finally wrapping up at Circular Quay. * **Gratuity:** A $5 contribution is appreciated to help cover our Meetup subscription and group running costs. Carry Cash or ask for PayID. **Important - Please Read:** * **What to Bring:** Wear proper hiking shoes, bring **ample hydration (Minimum 1.5L of water- Refill available at stops), pack enough snacks/lunch,** sunscreen, hat, and weather protection\*\*.\*\* * **RSVP responsibly** – Treat it as a commitment; update or cancel 12–24 hrs before. * **Arrive early** – All route/gear info is in the description; hosts can’t field messages during the event. * **Stay together** – It's a volunteer-led community walk; keep the host in sight and let them know if you leave. * **Safety first** – **Your safety is your own responsibility**! You agree to follow host instructions, public-health orders and OZ Outdoors guidelines: [https://www.meetup.com/ozoutdoors](https://www.meetup.com/ozoutdoors) * **Get involved** – You're welcome to send the host feedback or let us know if you’d like to lead such walks. * **Connect with us on Instagram:** [https://instagram.com/ozoutdoors.syd](https://instagram.com/ozoutdoors.syd) * **LinkedIn (Manish):** [https://linkedin.com/in/manishpm/](https://linkedin.com/in/manishpm/)

Frequently asked questions

Meetup connects people by helping them find local groups and events based on shared interests. For those interested in backcountry skiing, Meetup can be a resource for discovering niche communities in Sydney and participating in skiing activities together.

Meetup allows you to search for skiing events by entering Sydney as your location and specifying 'backcountry skiing' as your interest. This approach helps to pinpoint local gatherings and relevant outdoor activities.

Yes, on Meetup, you can find groups that organize backcountry skiing trips and activities around Sydney. These communities are often formed by enthusiasts sharing a passion for exploring the less-traveled snow routes.

Meetup is free to explore and join groups. However, certain groups or events may have participation fees, such as equipment rental or guide charges, especially in niche activities like backcountry skiing.

Yes, you can join multiple Meetup groups. You're not limited to just one community; feel free to connect with several groups that cover your different skiing or outdoor adventure interests.

To RSVP, log in to your Meetup account, navigate to the event's page in your group, and click the 'RSVP' button. This process allows organizers to track attendance, ensuring smoother planning.

Expect to meet like-minded skiing enthusiasts and enjoy shared experiences on challenging and scenic routes. Events typically involve group skiing, safety briefings, and often a social component after skiing.

Group skiing offers safety in numbers, shared knowledge, and camaraderie. Backcountry skiing with others also ensures support during unexpected situations, enhancing the experience.

While Meetup fosters connection opportunities, it doesn't guarantee friendships. Success in meeting people depends on personal engagement and actively participating in group activities.

Participation typically varies by event; some may cater to all skill levels, while others require experience. Always check event details on Meetup or contact organizers for recommendations.

While Meetup hosts many activities, availability is dependent on existing groups and their interests. It's best to search regularly as new groups and events may be regularly added.

Meetups are organized by individual hosts, not by Meetup directly. How events are managed can vary significantly depending on the specific group's leaders.

Meetup is aimed at organizing group events rather than facilitating equipment rentals. However, some group discussions or situations might offer advice on the best options locally.

Event inclusiveness varies greatly, with some welcoming all levels, while others may cater to experienced skiers only. Always check descriptions to find the right fit for your skills.

Typically, skiing groups don't provide equipment, but they sometimes collaborate with rental services. Always verify with event or group descriptions for specific details.
