On the 20th June, Raglan Ramblers are off to Mount Pirongia. An option will be for them to maybe stay at a hut and look at the 700-year-old pāhautea trees. Pirongia is Waikato’s highest mountain at 959 metres. The alternative routes are 10.7 km up the on the Tahuanui Track, rising 880m, or 7.9km and climbing 800m on Wharauroa Track. Please bring your lunch.
Walks usually start 9 am, 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-https://www.facebook.com/RaglanRamblers/ .
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.
