Trips

________________________________________________________________

 

The club trip schedule is designed to provide a variety of interesting destinations in and around South East Queensland with varying degrees of off road difficulty. 

This allows members to participate at a level they feel most comfortable. Trips range from treks through rugged terrain to easy forest drives. 

Trips often include an overnight camping stay.
