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.
