Oct 18: Raglan Ramblers to climb Kakepuku

Kakepuku, rising from the plain near Te Awamutu

On the 18th October, Raglan Ramblers will head over the divvy to Kakepuku. This  449 metre former volcano rises from the plain near Te Awamutu. They’ll climb up to the lookout tower. Kakepuku is in a line of volcanoes with Karioi and Pirongia and look down on the nearby Te Kawa. Please bring your lunch for this one.

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.
