On the 15th November, Raglan Ramblers will head to Hamilton Gardens for a walk before the $20 entry fee starts in February. Hamilton Gardens is home to Te Parapara shown in the photo, New Zealand’s only traditional Maaori productive garden. The garden showcases traditional practices, materials and ceremonies relating to food production and storage, drawn from the knowledge of local Maaori which has been passed down the generations. Ramblers will also be striding out for about 10 kilometres of walking beside the river. Please bring your lunch.
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/. Most 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.
