On the 19th October, Raglan Ramblers will be walking to the Te Uku Wind farm from the car park along Pipiwharauroa Way. This is a long walk of about 18 kilometres, but it is easy walking on the access road and partly-formed road. The gradients are easy and there are good views along the way. As well as that you can get close to the 2 MW, 130 metre high towers. 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.
