On the 16th May Raglan Ramblers will be walking in the  Taitua arboretum. They say that hopefully they’ve timed this for the autumn colours, which enhance the variety of trees at the arboretum. After this blaze of colour they’ll climb the hill to look over Hamilton and maybe stop at a cafe on the way back.

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.
