On the 9th January, Raglan Ramblers are off to the Kawhia Rd to explore an area on the lava flow which blocked the Pakihi valley about two million years ago. Since then the Pakihi has found its way through the limestone under the lava to re-emerge in a spring further down the valley. After heavy rain Lake Disappear forms to the north. There is this deep sink hole in between. Also good views to Aotea Harbour. Please bring your lunch.
Photos of the area are on the Rambler’s Facebook.
Walks usually start 9 am, Wednesdays, from James St near the Catholic Church and the intersection with Wallis St.
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/.
