Kauri Glen Out & Back Walk

Kia ora Friends,

This evenings loop walk will be an out & back to Kauri Glen, we'll check out 2 volcanoes and enjoy native trees along forest paths.

This walk is undulating with good paths, although there are some sections of rough path that may be slippery after the rain. This will be a moderate walk at a normal pace.

Bring your good self along to explore an area that may be new to you, get some exercise and meet friends. Be prepared for whatever the weather throws at us, check the forecast at Weather

If you have an interest in exercise, new places, local knowledge and lighthearted chitchat, then this walk is a great way to spend your Thursday evening. Good training for a Great Walk or recovering runners.

Fitness requirement for your enjoyment: Be able to keep a 13 min/km pace for 2 hours, with no assistance or rest.
