Seven Mille Beach - Roches Beach - 3 Jun 2025

Today we are walking a circuit of Seven Mile Beach and Roches Beach.

 

Our leader has indicated that the walk will include a twist on our previous walks in this area.

The weather forecast is for a fine day although cold winds.

The happy group are ready to go.

Looking along Seven Mile Beach towards the rising sun.

Not the normal start to this walk.

Although the views are great. Apparently the Council have recently established a new track that climbs Signal Hill which will allow a circuit walk rather than the normal out and back coastal track.

    

Heading up the new track.

Which zig zags up the hill.

A panorama towards the end of Seven Mile Beach and Frederick Henry Bay.

Where to next?

Mount Wellington clear across the hills.  

 

Enjoying the view from the top of the hill, a great morning tea stop.

Looking towards Lauderdale and Mays Beach.

Now following the Tandgara Trails working our way back to Roches Beach.

Climbing up from Roches Beach onto the track.

 

 

If you look in this direction you'll see it differently.

A beautifully constructed stone bridge on the track.

The more adventurous of the group took the low road.

A shell beach among the rocky shore.

Nearly there.

The final walk up the beach to the cars.

 

 

The 18 walkers cover nearly 11kms in 4.25 hours climbing and descending 210 meters on the day.

A different walk around an area that always provides good walking and great coastal views.

Thanks to Chris for leading the walk and his photos.
