On the 10th December, Raglan Ramblers will be heading up Kakepuku. This 449 metre former volcano rises from the plain near Te Awamutu. The Ramblers will be looking at the recently restored track and lookout tower. Kakepuku is in a line of volcanoes with Karioi and Pirongia. You’ll need to bring your lunch for this one.
Walks usually start 9am Wednesdays from Wainui Rd car park (next to Raglan Fire Station). 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
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.
