The Bush Club


The Bush Club is an Australian bushwalking club founded in 1939 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.

History

The club was founded by Marie Byles and Paddy Pallin in 1939. The club differed from others because it did not organise walks that took more than a day. These walks which did not involve overnight camping meant that recently-arrived European refugees could join in, even though some of them were required to report to the authorities each day.
