SUMMARY:Canberra's Western Edge walks - Brown Hill\, Stromlo Forest Park Share
DESCRIPTION:Help keep the Western Edge safe from bulldozers\nRegister here: https://events.humanitix.com/canberra-s-western-edge-walks-brown-hill-stromlo-forest-park-where-wedge-tailed-eagles-ride-the-winds\nThis gentle walk takes us to the top of Brown Hill to view the entire 9800-hectare Western Edge and the Brindabella Ranges beyond. Find out how the ACT government is considering suburban sprawl that could let developers bulldoze these vital working farms and multi-use recreation trails. Then\, wander through box-gum grassy woodland to encounter magnificent old yellow box and apple box trees and the bubbling Rocky Creek. Bring your binoculars to watch the wedge-tailed eagles soar above Brown Hill. Out of six pairs of wedge-tailed eagles in the Western Edge\, the nests of three pairs have already been displaced by recent suburban sprawl. Learn what new development is proposed\, and how we can keep the Western Edge safe for our eagles\, kids and grand kids to explore. \nAfter the walk\, stay for a cup of tea\, a biscuit and a chat with fellow participants about the campaign to save the Western Edge. \n  \nWALK DETAILS \nSunday 13 September 2026 \n1:00pm to 2.30pm – Up to 2km walk return \n2.30 – 3.00pm – afternoon tea and chat \n  \nMEETING LOCATION \nMount Stromlo Water Treatment Plant \nMount Stromlo Road\, Stromlo \nMap coordinates: -35.325591\, 149.000855 \nMap link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/2SHyms795GS3triT8 \n  \nDirections: \nTurn off Mount Stromlo Road at the sign to Mount Stromlo Water Treatment Plant.
