Churchill National Park

Churchill National Park 30 August 2009. Located in Rowville, the park boasts 172 species of birds, kangaroos and wallabies. Stumbled through a few massive kangaroo colonies, tried to make friends with 'em that resulted in a few glorious scenes of 'roos zipping through the fields, and ended up getting very lost in the 1668 hectare park. Took us three hours and some massive detours and faux short cuts through hills to find our way out.

Consisting of 4 solid hills, a former reservoir, it was no walk in the park as it got dark. Doubling up as a mountain bike trail, most of the trek involved massive slope climbing action. Glad to have come out in one piece! Good training for sure.
