Walks through Monty

​In 2017, we designed the Walks Through Montmorency project to explore the importance of the preservation of our local heritage- both natural and human. 

We received a Council grant to establish this project- enabling us to employ a local historian to provide background information on the indigenous and European history of the area. The Friends of Monty Bushlands provided information on significant vegetation and nature reserves. In 2018, our project team of volunteers explored and mapped suitable walking routes and led the walks.

4 guided walks were offered - 2 Autumn walks and 2 Spring walks. Each covered both well-known and little known features of our unique suburb. All walks incorporated indigenous and European history and natural elements and were enjoyed by all. Walkers were rewarded at the end with refreshments in picnic- style or at a local cafe.

We would like to extend on this project in future- interested residents are invited to contact us with your ideas, knowledge or offers of assistance.
