Join Barkley for this year’s Paddy Pallin 6 hour rogaine being held about an hours drive south of Canberra around the headwaters of the Gudgenby River; near the Yankee Hat walking track. The event will start at 9am and finish at 3pm.

The event covers open grassy plains and native forest with very little scrub.  There are a few hilly sections, nice creeks, tracks, firetrails and old huts.  The altitude ranges from about 900m to 1,300m.  As usual, the ACTRA  Annual General Meeting will be held at the end of the event as you enjoy the catering. ACTRA will be catering - so here is your chance to show off your excellent cheese toastie cooking skills. Paddy Pallin has also provided a range of lucky door prizes for the event.  Thank you Paddy Pallin !!

Volunteers for the event are very welcome (and needed). Anything from help with hanging controls, admin on the day or catering would be most appreciated.  Contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. 

Entries are $40 full price and $30 concession with under 14 free.

Parking is limited in the area (along the road) so PLEASE try and organise car sharing within your team and perhaps take another team.  For those coming from further afield, there is no camping at the HH but camping is permitted at Orroral Valley Campground (30 minutes north of HH) and Mt Clear Campground (40 minutes south of HH - unsealed road).

Please note: Anyone intending to enter the 2026 Oceania Orienteeing Championships middle distance event in September next year is unable to enter this rogaine event as the area is already embargoed.  However, do consider helping at the HH.
