Jun 7: Ramblers to explore North East Hamilton

Update from Ramblers: Bev probably can’t lead tomorrow’s walk, so it’s been swapped with Con’s 19 July south Hamilton walk. We’ll meet in the Rose Garden Carpark, which Google maps says is 50km and 49 mins from James St. The new walk/cycleway has this bridge on it (about 3km from the Gardens), so we can see how much further we want to go and have time to look round the Gardens before they start charging $20 for entry next year. The forecast is for fine weather, so hope to see you tomorrow.
