Illawarra run to Glenbernie Orchard
This run has been cancelled due to you know what.
Our run starts at Wollongong Lighthouse overlooking Wollongong South Beach. We then travel along Wollongong’s ‘Blue Mile’ before heading up along the coastal strip to Thirroul.
We continue to travel north through Wollongong's northern suburbs and along the scenic Lawerence Hargrave Drive, over the Seacliff Bridge to Stanwell Tops and on to Helensburg, turning on to the old Princess Highway and into Darkes Forest Road and on to the Apple Shack - Glenbernie Orchard.
The 60 hectare farm is located on the Illawarra Escarpment and is a fourth generation family owned and operated business. At approximately 10.30 a.m. we will go on a one to one and a half hour guided tractor tour of the orchard at a cost of $10 p.p. (for a minimum of 20 people) The tour includes the opportunity to taste fresh fruit straight off the tree. Fruit can also be picked to take away but will need to be paid for separately at the cost of approximately $4 a bag.
Glenbernie is famous for its award winning cider, which will be available for purchase on the day, together with dried fruits, juice, honey and preserves.
"It’s time for lunch now," we hear you say. That will be at the restaurant with one of the best views in the world, ‘Panorama House’ at Bulli Tops. Midweek lunch is available at a cost of $22 p.p. Your table has been booked for 1.00 p.m.
RSVP:- By Sunday 26th April for numbers to be confirmed with the different venues.
