Coastal Walk & Dinner - Breaker Bay Adventure - Labour Day Monday
Details
# Breaker Bay Adventure: Coastal Walk, Scenic Picnic & 2-4-1 Pizza 🍕
When: Monday, 26 October (Labour Day Public Holiday) | Difficulty: Easy to Moderate (Some hill climbs) | Pace: Social & Relaxed
Come on an afternoon adventure with me and meet some friendly people exploring a wild & beautiful hidden corner of Wellington. This is for anyone who loves discovering new places, breathtaking views, great company & food. We'll walk at a relaxed pace through the Ōruaiti Reserve, wandering through the WWII gun embankments and up to the historic site of Ōruaiti Pā. The vast sweeping views feel like you're at the edge of the world, and it's a perfect spot to stop and share a picnic snack, and warm drink.
From there we'll take the track down to the beach and wander back along the shore before heading over to Park Kitchen in Miramar for a 5:45PM dinner. Monday is 2-for-1 pizza night, and they are really good!🍕
