On the 12th August, Raglan Ramblers will be in the Okete Rd area. This is a morning walk over some of the farms in the Okete valley. Until 1906, this was the main route inland from Raglan and had churches, flax mills and a quarry.

There is no membership – the only cost is 10 cents per km to share travel costs. Details from John 825 7866. Check out Raglan Ramblers on Facebook-https://www.facebook.com/RaglanRamblers/. All walks start at 9am from the James St/ Wallis St corner near Catholic church.

Each “Rambler” accepts responsibility for any accident or injury received while travelling, or walking over private property. Be prepared – carry enough food, clothing, first aid kit for emergencies and preferably a mobile phone.
