Trail Mixers are Back! 30th August

We are next meeting on Saturday 30 August so mark it in your diary and invite your friends.
The proposed route: Meet at Te Kororia (8:45am) leaving at 9am. Walk up Standen into the Cemetery; walk to Tangiwai Memorial then into the trails up to Johnston Hill and then onto Skyline, return down Parkvale to return to the cafe.
The walk covers approximately 6-7 km and should take around 1.5 to 2 hours.
Please wear sturdy shoes suitable for muddy and uneven terrain, and dress in layers to stay comfortable with the weather. You will need a ‘medium’ level of fitness to handle the hills and the duration. Come along and enjoy the fresh air and some good company!
And in the meantime, pray for good weather 🙂
