On October 11th, Raglan Ramblers will be walking to Te Uku Wind Farm from Van Houtte Rd. The the track runs seven kilometres along the ridge through the centre of the wind farm. Little remains of the bush which covered this plateau before Benoit Vanhoutte arrived in 1897, so that only mist now blocks the views of the surrounding hills and harbours. Please bring your lunch.
Walks usually start 9am, 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
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.
