On the 4th March, Raglan Ramblers will be back at Te Kaha Pt (Mussel Rock). On this seven kilometre walk there are views over Raglan. Along the way there are limestone stacks and a beach with sixty metre high dunes. These are rich enough in iron to be considered for a steelworks in the 1960s. There are also lakes, streams, a cave and basalt rock, over an area that still has evidence that a population similar to Raglan’s once lived here. Low tide is about 11.30am. Please bring your lunch and the $10 boat fare.

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.
