More Information

Local guides: We aim for this weekend to be an enjoyable social time while discovering Mangawhai and its beautiful surroundings. All walks are led by a knowledgeable guide who will lead the walk, set the pace and remain at the front while the ‘Tail end Charlies” ensure everyone keeps part of the group.

Safety: We walk as a group between the leader and the ‘Tail-end Charlies’. Walkers are required to sign in at the beginning of each walk, and sign off at the end – our way of accounting for all walkers.

Meeting: All walks leave from and return to the Mangawhai Domain, Moir Street Mangawhai. Arrive 15 minutes before Assembly time.

Booking: All walks have limited numbers – please do not be disappointed if your first choice is not available. Please make sure you indicate a second choice.

Getting to the Walks: Car pooling will be organised for some of the walks, this is arranged on the day. Some walks include bus or shuttle transport.

Booking Confirmation: Confirmation of your walks, and information about what to bring will be emailed to you.

Toilets: Some walks do not have toilet facilities. There are toilets at the Domain Hall.
