On November 21st, Raglan ramblers will be walking to Wairēinga (Bridal Veil) Falls from Newton Rd. This is a five kilometre walk, starting with a distant view, then by the Pakoka River through boulder strewn bush to the foot of the waterfall, not much changed since this 1898 photo, and back on the ridge. Please bring your lunch.

Walks usually start 9 am, Wednesdays, they are still starting from James St (near Wallis St), as the Ramblers haven’t decided to go back to meeting near the 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.
