2015 Guided Walks Program

Updated GDTA Walks Program 2015 (@ 9 May 2015)
As a GDTA financial member, you can have as many walks as you like, at no cost other than your
annual subscription.
If you are a visitor you are welcome but you must be reasonably fit and able to walk the distance.
You will need to become a Temporary GDTA Member (for the day of the walk) so that you have
some insurance coverage. However, you should have your own personal accident insurance and
have ambulance membership.
In the one calendar year:
As a visitor, you can have up to three walks as a Temporary Member, at a fee of $5.00 per walk.
After that you must become a Financial Member before you walk again with GDTA.
Temporary Member fees will count towards payment of the first year’s subscription.
To enquire about a walk, email gdtatrail@gmail.com or phone 0477 968 579 AT LEAST ONE WEEK
BEFORE THE WALK. Give your name and phone number so we can contact you.
