The Big Loop Trail – Joy’s Fitness Hub Hike 2017

What a fantastic group of ladies! It is hard to fit 5 days of hiking, relaxing and exploring into a short blog, I hope the photos show what a great group of ladies were on this hike and how much I enjoyed their company. The camraderie within this group was really special and I know we all came away from it with lifelong memories and friendships. Many interesting topics where covered and our motto became – “what happens on hike, stays on hike!”

Congratulations on hosting your first trek!! It has been fantastic. The landscape has been impressive, the food has been amazing, best of all your attention to detail has blown me away. The washers, linen tablecloths, table decorations etc. The size of the group spot on. Well done and thanks to you Shelly and your fabulous offsiders.

Knocked my socks off! What a terrific mind escape in a vast, ancient and beautiful landscape. The camaraderie of companionship was just brilliant, a credit to the structure of the trek. All the finer details – refreshing face clothes, fine champagne, white linen tablecloths and nutritious meals topped off each stage of the trek. AMAZING!!!

What a great Trek West it has been! I have ticked the box! 76km of walking, powering on with lovely friends and conversations, so many laughs, good food, spectacular scenery, nice wine, beautiful dinner settings. So exciting! I will never forget The Big Loop. Keep up the excellent work – It’s a winner!

You have delivered a trek that I will hold dear to my heart for a long, long time. Your attention to detail has made my camping experience nothing short of amazing. The stars, the campfire, the cool drinks, the warm face washers in the morning, the amazing food and the WOW of arriving at the Stockcamp. You have all generously shared your time, knowledge and a snippet of your everyday life with me and I thank you for this.

Thank you Shelly and girls for an amazing experience. I didn’t really have an expectation – but it has been amazing. Such a vast difference to what I’m used to and the variety of landscapes and experiences has created memories that “our group” will cherish. The attention to details – table clothes, hand towels etc. have added a special touch and the food was truly outstanding. Thank you seems inadequate, it has been AMAZING!!

Cathy Hoare “Rockview” Bluff Qld The Big Loop Trail 2017

Thank you Shelly, Tilly, Pete and Liz for a job well done! You’ve done a wonderful lot of hard work to give us a great experience on your beautiful property, Herbertvale. Your attention to detail was very much appreciated: Crabtree and Evelyn citron soap “and” lotion, pristine white towels, cold cold soda water and lemon, very comfy air-beds and tents, meals and glamorously laid dinner tables every night. We were the kings and queens of your grass castle.

Thank you, we will be back.
