We will assemble at Epping Station for the 9.09 am train to Eastwood, then travel by bus to Silverwater Bridge. We follow the Parramatta River along a cycleway, passing through Wilson Park and diverting to the Blaxland Common, where a slow circular incline will take us to the top of the Millennium Marker for 360⁰ view of the Harbour Bridge and around to the Blue Mountains in the distance. After the descent, we sill stop at nearby for morning tea, on our way back to the Riverside Walk. We then continue to the Olympic Park Ferry Wharf, passing the parklands of Newington Armoury along the way. It is then on beside the Wannigal Wetlands and Woodlands, before entering the Olympic Park, our destination being "The Overflow Park", where the cauldron fountain is situated and where we will have our lunch.

Our return home will be by bus to Strathfield and train thereon.
