Are you the owner of Shoalhaven Bushwalkers?
Established in the breathtaking Shoalhaven region of New South Wales, Shoalhaven Bushwalkers is a non-political and community-based sports club. Situated in Nowra – approximately 160 kilometres south of Sydney – the club is proudly affiliated with Bushwalking NSW.
The club boasts an exclusive “live” programme that is not available to the public. This programme includes weekend walks, with Wednesday being the main walking day for most members. In addition to the walks, members can also partake in various social events organised by the club.
To keep members updated and engaged, Shoalhaven Bushwalkers produces an informative e-newsletter. This newsletter encompasses a range of articles, walk reports, and captivating photographs.

Furthermore, the club also maintains a Youtube channel where occasional updates featuring captivating movies from their walks are shared.
The club provides a diverse range of walks across different difficulty levels to cater to varying preferences and fitness levels.
