Join Derek Cook, your guide from social enterprise Up The Creek alongside Wurundjeri Elder Uncle Ian Hunter to take a walk along the Birrarung during Bupa’s Healthy Cities Challenge. Learn about the state and the history of the river, through the eyes of its custodians and advocates. The walk will see the group meeting at Sparks Reserve, near the corner of the Boulevard and Heidelberg Rd. The group will wander the Darebin trail past golf courses and over the Birrarung to Willsmere in Kew.

Please note that the Birrarung is home to some of Victoria’s most precious and beloved wildlife. Visitors are asked proceed with care and caution.

Please be sure to bring a sturdy pair of shoes and a bottle of water. Tickets to this event are strictly limited.

This program is co-presented by Bupa and the NGV in association with the exhibition Reimagining Birrarung: Design Concepts for 2070.
