Last week we cancelled our Wednesday walk for the first time ever due to some very wet weather, but today was one of those awesome autumn days where the air has a special clarity and a whiff of winter came wafting in on a cool breeze. Today was a two part walk, starting at Coomera. Regatta Waters Lake is situated in the Damian Leeding Memorial Park beside the Coomera River and the 4k track around the lake is a pleasant easy walk, full of surprises, some of which were captured in the following pictures. It was a lovely walk and we enjoyed the scenery a little longer as we had morning tea beside the lake. We then walked across the bridge and followed a path along the Coomera River - eight easy flat kilometres in all. After eight easy kilometres we needed more of a challenge, so we headed to Nerang National Park and tackled some hills after lunch. Nerang National Park is an open forest environment, popular for mountain bike riders, bushwalkers and bird watchers, trail runners and horse riders. We found our challenging hills and turned over a few more kilometres on our pedometers, rounding off the day nicely with 13 kilometres covered in all. The Nerang National Park deserves a full day of walking with its many tracks, so we will make a return visit in the future.
