3211 - Kaimanawa's Walks

Trip 3211 - 29 & 30 November 25    Kaimanawa's Walks

 

This trip is co-organised by Steve Dick and myself. We initially tried doing this trip at Auckland Anniversary Weekend in 2023 but, had to cancel due to the major storm at the time.

 

We need early indication whether people would like to stay at Sika Lodge for the weekend? This will help us with our planning.

 

Accommodation: As mention above, we will look at using Sika Lodge (if enough interest) but, just down the Road is a large area for camping and parking campervans. Both types of accommodation require no walking to.

 

As the travelling time is around 4hrs, we are happy to travel Friday afternoon as this will give us more time on Saturday and Sunday to do short walks.

 

Walks: Steve and I have several short walks to explore which we checked out prior to the 2023 trip. These tracks are not marked on the TOPO maps. We should be able to fit in at least two/three short walks on the Saturday and one/two on Sunday before driving home.

 

This trip is a good opportunity for one to explore a new area (if not been here before) at a more easy pace and maybe try camping without carrying a heavy pack.

 

More information will come out closer to the time.
