Capital City Trail Walk – 5 km, 10 km, or the Full Loop

Join us for a big, social day out walking the full Capital City Trail loop around inner Melbourne. We'll follow the trail at an easy, social pace, taking in the Yarra River, Merri Creek, Royal Park, and the Docklands waterfront along the way. The full AllTrails route is about 30 km as a loop, listed as moderately challenging, but it's mostly flat so it's more about stamina than fitness. Because it's a loop that weaves through the inner suburbs, the route stays close to trains and trams, so we can keep the plan nice and flexible. You can choose what suits you: * **Shorter option:** walk part of the loop and hop off early after a comfortable distance. Trains and trams are never far away. * **Full option:** complete the whole loop with the group back towards the start. This is a casual walk, not a fitness challenge. We'll keep an easy social pace, take breaks, and you're welcome to peel off early whenever you've had enough kilometres. **Links** Meetup start point: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/JkFZ9YEgks9ibFms5](https://maps.app.goo.gl/JkFZ9YEgks9ibFms5) AllTrails route link: [https://www.alltrails.com/en-gb/trail/australia/victoria/capital-city-trail](https://www.alltrails.com/en-gb/trail/australia/victoria/capital-city-trail) **Rough timeline** * 9:00am – Meet outside Transport Hotel entrance and say hi * 9:15am – Start walking * 12:30–1:30pm – Lunch break * Around 5:00pm – Finish walking, with optional coffee afterwards **Hop-off points (for the shorter option)** If you'd like to peel off early, here are handy exit points along the way with the nearest public transport (distances are approximate, measured from the start): * \~10 km – Skipping Girl sign, Abbotsford → Burnley St/Victoria St (Tram 109) * \~15 km – Melbourne Polytechnic, Fairfield → Heidelberg Rd bus stop (approx. 11 min walk) * \~20 km – Poplar Oval → Royal Park Station (Upfield line) * \~25 km – Woolworths, The District Docklands → D10 NewQuay Prom/Docklands Dr (Trams 35, 70 & 86) **What to bring** * Comfortable walking shoes * Warm/weatherproof layer * Water * Snacks * Sunscreen **What to expect** * Distance: About 30 km for the full loop * Difficulty: Moderate according to AllTrails, but mostly flat, straightforward path walking * Pace: Slow, easy, and social * Vibe: Relaxed, low-pressure, and welcoming to solo attendees **Important notes** * You can do a shorter section and hop off early after as many kilometres as you like — the loop stays close to public transport. * It's a long day, so bring enough water, food, and sun protection. * The walk is weather-dependent, so please check the forecast and dress accordingly. * We'll aim to stay together, but the route is well-marked and flexible. * Optional coffee at the finish will depend on the group on the day.

Minyon & Condong Falls Loop 🌴

Hey everybody, Let's hike Minyon Falls down to the base! We will start out the trail at the top of the falls, taking a small detour to the the hidden Condong Falls. From here we will wind down through the tranquil sub tropical rainforest to the base and take in the beauty of Minyon Falls. After a long lunch break at the base, we will wind back up the loop towards the Minyon Grass area, where we will finish our hike. Total hike distance is approximately 10km. **IMPORTANT INFO** * Event restricted to 20 people. * One plus 1 per person welcome, please indicate on RSVP. * If you RSVP then can't attend, please give a minimum of 48 hours notice so others don't miss out: Please read our full RSVP and cancellation policy below. * Please bring lunch, snacks and enough water as there will not be any chance to buy any once we leave. * This is classified as a "Grade 3-4" walk: Above average difficulty, with a scramble to the falls required at the bottom of the hike. * Please be sure to wear closed toe shoes. * Option to swim at base of falls. * Donations are appreciated to help cover the cost of Meetup fees. Please Help our group grow! Please join us here on facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/200630941048701 **RSVP and cancellation policy** As our MeetUps are generally published on the Thursday evening before the Sunday's event, there are less than 3 days between publication and the event. Therefore, by RSVPing it is expected that you are certain you can attend and do not cancel your place. If you have any doubt about attending the event, please leave the space for others who are sure they can come. If you need to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances, please send a private message with a legitimate reason as to why you can't make it to the event organiser (please note that the weather will not be accepted as a legitimate excuse, as the forecast 3 days prior to the event is close enough to get a good idea of what to expect). Failure to send said private message will result in a first warning and then if it happens a second time, it will result in your removal from the group. The reasoning for this is that our MeetUp group has over 1000 members and with hikes only taking 15-20 people, places are at a premium. Therefore, when there are late withdrawals, members on the waitlist miss out on attending at the expense of others, so a private message is to make attendees accountable for their RSVPs and therefore being considerate of others wishing to join. Thank you for your understanding. **Disclaimer** Healthy Hangouts is not a formal organisation and therefore does not have liability insurance. Healthy Hangouts will not be held responsible in any way for any mishaps, injuries or adverse health occurrences that may happen during any events - Organisers, guides and associates of Healthy Hangouts will not be held liable either.

Fox Hill Grade 3 Moderate Hike 5.6km

After taking a good 6 months hiatus during the offseason, I need to ease back in let's rehash a favourite. One of Adelaide's gems nestled right by the city in the suburb of Rostrevor (Hint it's not Morialta this time but almost as good and much more niche). Fox Hill, often overlooked in my observation as it is a modest conservation area but well worth the effort in my opinion. Meet at the ample car park on your left as you approach on Montacute rd. We will then continue on Chapmans Track, Moores Track before returning via Fox Hill Track. Don't be deceived the first 1km is steep but safe as we will be traversing this upwards for the first 30 min and then all downhill thereon. Really a combination of a Grade 4 hard hike at the beginning and easy Grade 2 fire trails thereafter. Total distance is a mere 5.6kms for those waiting in the ranks that are less keen on endurance this one's for you. There will be at least one notable landmark as we navigate this circuit as reward for effort put in at the start (almost 300m elevation gain). Let's enjoy a brisk hike and enjoy the best of nature after good rains. Hiking poles or an umbrella are not mandatory but recommended for the steep ascent at the start. **What to Bring:** * Sturdy footwear 🥾 * Sunsmart gear 😎 * Water 1 litre 🎒 * Hiking Pole 🌂 **SAFETY NOTICE:** As we embark on this journey, remember that each participant and their guests are responsible for their safety and well-being throughout the event. Unforeseen incidents or accidents are beyond my control, so please exercise caution. If you bring guests to an event, it's crucial to inform them that this is a hiking event. They need to wear appropriate shoes and clothes for hiking. Please ensure your guests are well-prepared. **By RSVPing to this event, you confirm that both you and your guests take full responsibility for your own safety.** You agree not to hold the Organiser or Adelaide Adventure Seekers liable for any accidents, losses, or misadventures during the event.

Stoicism - Courage | Temperance | Wisdom | Justice

This meeting is a space for those who are curious about Stoic philosophy and want to study, analyze, and apply its teachings to daily life. We engage with Stoic texts, discuss their relevance in the modern world, and explore how to embody Stoic virtues such as wisdom, courage, temperance, and justice. We encourage critical thinking within the framework of Stoicism, where we ask questions to explore, refine, and deepen our understanding of Stoic principles. Format: Every week, we analyse three Stoic quotes, give our perspectives, and discuss them as a group. A core principle of the group is that everyone has an equal opportunity to participate and contribute to discussions (however, attendees are welcome to listen and speak only if they feel comfortable). Facilitators actively encourage balanced participation and foster an atmosphere of active listening and respect. 1. **The Dichotomy Of Control** \- Things that are within my control: my thoughts and actions\. Things that are outside of my control: everything else\. Having a clear set of goals sets me on a journey; from which I am detached from all outcomes 2. **Live According To Nature** \- It is in my nature to behave virtuously\. The fundamentals of which are: a) *Courage* \- face my fears b) *Temperance* \- restrain from excess c) *Wisdom* \- respond rationally d) *Justice* \- act responsibly 3. **The Obstacle Is The Way** \- The obstacles in my life are blessings in that overcoming them strengthens my mind\. 4. **Sympatheia** \- Be an objective thinker by understanding that we have a mutual interdependence on the whole of humanity\. 5. **Memento Mori** \- Meditate on my mortality and live in the present\. 6. **Premeditatio Malorum** \- The only certainty in life is that nothing is certain\. I should prepare myself mentally for any disruptions that may occur\. Rehearse these in my mind: exile\, torture\, war\, shipwreck\. 7. **Amor Fati** \- First\, to accept fate\, then to love it\. 8. **Reflect (journal)** \- Reflect on the day by exploring why I felt and acted the way I did "The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is so we might listen more and talk less." - Zeno of Citium Let's create a community of people who inspire, motivate, and support each other to become more responsible and rational adults.

POSTPONED Cape Surville Lookout

POSTPONED. Peter and I will investigate the roads this weekend and advise the situation for another time. This walk is the Cape Surville Track out and back starting somewhere along Richardsons Road. This is vague because if you are lucky, you can drive the full length of that 4WD track in a normal car, but rain and track degradation means that we don't know how far we can get. There is some discrepancy in the blogs and posts about how long the hike is, and I suspect this is because of all the different starting points along the track. See the posts below from All Trails that range from 4.3 for just the Cape or 24.3 if you walk the entire length of Richardsons Road each way. We will probably cover up to 10-15km and it could take 4-5 hours if we take it easy. But if Richardsons Road is in bad condition we may have to park earlier. **Meeting Time:** 9:45am - be early so that we know exactly who is coming. you may not have phone reception and will not be able to call. **Meeting Place:** We will meet at the end of Hylands Road, and then together venture as far along Richardsons Road as we can. We will walk to the end of Richardson Road, cross Chasm Creek and start the track. **Getting There**. It takes about 1h 20min to drive to the start so you will need to leave town early to arrive in time. "Head towards Murdunna on the Forestier Peninsula, just south of Dunalley. In Murdunna, turn left off the A9 into Hylands Road. This road is a forestry road, and all tracks are gravel."

Every extra seat means another person gets to join. Fewer cars, easier logistics, and a more social, fun start to the day. Carpooling is also a great way to meet people before the hike even begins, share a few laughs, get to know each other, and arrive together. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the experience 🌿 💡 Carpool tickets are offered at a discounted price to encourage drivers to offer seats and make the hikes accessible for everyone. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **For Drivers** If you’ve got spare seats, offering a lift makes a big difference.

Film Discussion - Triangle of Sadness

Who's really in charge? Join The Frame Lab for a discussion of Ruben Östlund's Palme d'Or-winning satire, Triangle of Sadness (2022). A luxury yacht. Ultra-wealthy guests. A captain who'd rather quote Marx than steer the ship. Triangle of Sadness is a film that starts as a comedy and ends as something far more uncomfortable. It earns its Palme d'Or the hard way. Come and unpack the dark comic dismantling of class, power, and what happens when the world gets turned upside down. The film unveils: -Class, wealth, and the performance of status -Power — who holds it and how quickly it shifts -Gender, beauty, and what we trade to get ahead -Whether the film is optimistic or deeply cynical about human nature Triangle of Sadness is free to watch on SBS On Demand. If you've seen it before, a rewatch is worth it; the first act lands differently once you know where it's going. Bring your thoughts, your questions, and your honest reactions. Are you someone who keeps thinking about a film long after it's over? Join us at The Frame Lab, a community of curious minds who believe the best films don't end when the credits roll, they begin with the conversation after.

Winter Solstice Day Retreat

The winter solstice marks a threshold moment. Cultures have gathered for eons to recognise cosmic events, not because we are promised some radical transformation, but because shared ritual cultivates fertile ground for a meaningful life through reflection, connection and growth. Rituals help us digest change, build resilience, and experience and express that which may not be so accessible in our day-to-day lives. This winter solstice day retreat is an opportunity to pause, reflect and explore what it means to loosen your grip, release a little clinging and grasping to open to a quality of presence with a little less of the magnetism of attachment. The longest night calls for an acknowledgement of darkness. Through recognition and ritual, we will embrace the darkness as part of the natural cycle of life, welcoming the perspectives it offers before orienting ourselves towards the illumination of the renewing sun. Through Asana, Kriya, Japa mantra and meditation, we will spiral inwards, using practices to encourage self-inquiry, release and mark transitions to more fully experience our own lives. **What to Expect** Cultivate tapas through asana. Cleanse and release with kriya. Reflect and integrate through journaling. Explore the potency of japa mantra. Soften and renew with meditation. Warming, nourishing vegan food, and time to connect and rest. **What to Bring** Bring a journal and pen. Come dressed in comfortable, layered clothing suited to movement and stillness. Mats, cushions and blankets are provided, though you're welcome to bring your own. *Cautions* If you are pregnant, have had recent surgery or have any other significant medical condition, please be in touch with Jessie before you book - 0477 166 867 [BOOK HERE](https://momence.com/l/R5hJnoAd)

It'll be a very casual setting, where everyone can be themselves and can and go when they feel like it.

Conveniently for us, there is a cafe on the library's ground floor and there are many cafes also nearby! But for the sake of continuing to use the venue, please tidy up after yourself. This event is open to all neurodivergent people and anyone who values a friendly, inclusive space.

Philosophy Roundtable: Art

A painting that brings a person to tears. A banana worth 6.4 million dollars. A photograph ending a war. What is behind these phenomena? Please join us this Sunday to discuss the Philosophy of Art, where it comes from, what makes it powerful and why it is a universal across time and cultures. We will meet at the Captain Melville at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp. **Please note the new $5 mandatory donation entry fee** (cash or transfer on day) to help with MeetUp subscription costs, venue costs, etc. There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo, in the spirit of learning and friendly debate, so please feel free to challenge assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions challenged. This event is also posted to the Socrates Cafe group. We will explore the topic through a range of questions, including: **What is Art?** * What comes to mind when we use the word ‘Art’? What are the categories of objects or activities that you would consider to be art? * Which of these are art?: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1_1nl2_GKbGzzSbXsRRsnAZlkmNVqWPjm **Emotion** * Is art a luxury or necessity in life? Is it essential to happiness? * Why is art so effective at making us feel powerful emotions, even when we know it doesn’t represent reality? Are these ‘true’ emotions, or somehow different / simulated? * Why do we sometimes seek our art that makes us feel sad? **Objectivity** * Is there such a thing as objectively bad art? * Are there intrinsic properties that make something aesthetic (beautiful)? Are they universal? * Are there objective standards of ‘taste’? Can one person be said to have better taste than another? If so, on what basis or criteria? **Value** * What gives art its value? Why do we consider replicas differently? Is naturally occurring beauty different to art? * What compels humans towards art? Is there an evolutionary / biological explanation for the seemingly wasteful expenditure of resources on outputs that have no practical function? **Creativity** * Are only humans able to appreciate art? * Are only humans creative? * Is there such a thing as something truly new, or is every idea or expression a recombination of existing inputs into a different configuration of outputs? * Can a machine be creative? If not, what is the constraint? * Could we ever regard AI-creativity in the same way as that of a human? Hope to see you there!

Coffee & Connections: Topic Finding Art Space

Hi everyone, and welcome to our very first event! Since I’ve traveled to 50 countries before settling here in Melbourne, the idea of combining travel, daily living, and creating art is a massive passion of mine. To kick off our community of "dreamers and doers," we are hosting a relaxed weekend coffee meetup to connect, share, and get inspired. Whether you are a full-time professional artist or an entrepreneur exploring painting like I am, this is a casual space to meet face-to-face and build our local network over a great cup of Melbourne coffee. **Here is what we’ll be doing:** * 🎨 **Show & Tell:** Bring a sketchbook, your iPad, or just pull up some photos of your work on your phone. Let's celebrate what everyone is currently creating or exploring! * 🤝 **Network & Connect:** Swap Instagram handles, share industry contacts, and find your new creative accountability buddies. * 🌍 **Main Topic - Art Residencies & Coliving:** Have you ever done an art residency? Are you dreaming of joining a creative coliving space overseas or right here in Australia? Let's share resources, research, and dreams about blending travel with our artistic practices. **What to bring:** * A piece of your art (physical or digital) or a work-in-progress to share. * Your business cards, portfolio links, or social handles. * Any info, questions, or experiences you have regarding art residencies! I can't wait to meet you all and hear about your creative journeys. RSVP so I can make sure we grab a big enough table!

This event is in person! To find the room, walk into the car parking area from the street at 14 Frances St, walk to the end of the car park (to the left of the building) and enter in the side pedestrian gate. Walk straight down the pathway to the back building and up the stairs. Look for the signs to Skyview Hall! As part of the school of life Sydney meetup we host a discussion focused on the difficult questions deck. We flip a difficult question and then ask the group to answer. Some examples include, "what makes a good listener?" and "if you could own any piece of art, what would it be?", "who was a childhood role model other than your parents?" Join us for questions like these and more. We hope to have you join us in this journey of self discovery. If you’re reading this, you’re invited. Please don’t feel like you “won’t be welcome” just because you’re new, demographically different from the average member, or hate the School of Life and everything it stands for. You’ll be fine!
