Sunday 23 August for our next walk to the Centre of New Zealand. This track is no longer open to the Public. Linda has succeeded in gaining permission from the landowner for the Perambulators to cross his land. Another very special trip brought to you by the Perambulator's sub-committee. Don't miss out - you have plenty of time to re-arrange your affairs. This is a there and back track of about 16km total. It is a steady climb for about 2 ½ hours to the plaque that marks the centre of continental New Zealand. Then it is an extra half hour to spectacular views from the summit of Mt Reeves. Return back down the same track. Allow 5-6 hours for the return trip. The start of the track is at the end of Waiohine Valley Road, west of Greytown, and then across farm land. Meet at the Woodside station at 9am and convoy in carpools from there as there is not a lot of parking at the road end and no cell phone coverage. This is about an hour and a quarter drive from Wellington. If anyone wants to come and stay the night at our place at Morisons Bush very near to Greytown, then you are welcome. It would save the early start in the morning. People are welcome to come back to our place afterwards for coffee.
Bring:
https://wairarapanz.com/see- Here is another description of the walk
https://www.ttc.org.nz/pmwiki/
Up: From the car park at the Waiohine Valley road-end on the TR, the route crosses a small culverted stream, follows N along a farm road, and then rises away from the river to a terrace about 15 minutes from the car park. From this first crest of the road, the route is marked by a small green and yellow sign in a paddock behind an electric fence. After a steep 5 minute climb to the paddock’s top, the route enters pines near a large orange triangle. From here, the benched track to Reeves will be picked up leading L. This is the start of the old Greytown - Otaki Tourist Co's track. One hour from the road-end an open top offers a good spot for the first spell at .569. Beyond this, the track drops through a small saddle to enter better bush, then climbs to the track junction near knob .745, another hour on. From .745 the old well-defined pack track climbs gradually through bush, then old burn areas to the summit of Reeves, some 45 minutes distant – less than 3 hours from the road-end. About 15 minutes past the track junction near .745, there is a small cairn marking a 100-year-old camp site, probably used by the original track makers. Five minutes further on is a large plaque marking the centre of New Zealand's Extended Continental Shelf. |

This has become a much looked forward to annual event on the Perambulators' calendar. The hospitality is extraordinary so you are guaranteed a fantastic day out. A chance to explore Julian and Sue's place and their off the grid culture. Julian has been granted permission from his neighbours, to take us onto their land, so we will be walking on completely new territory. We will start an hour later, than we have been, due to the extra time it will take to get there. Detailed instructions from Julian: "The address is 589 Kiriwhakapapa Road, Masterton. If you get lost phone 06 370 8422 and hope for an answer.
To get there from Wellington will take at least two hours of driving (1 hour 48 minutes from Wellington Railway Station according to Google see attached), excluding any stops for cups of coffee. The starting time is 10.30 am and under the strict rules of the Perambulators, I understand we start at precisely 10.30 am. Late arrival is not tolerated, so I am told.
I assume you can find Masterton. Once there carry on to the north on SH 2, aiming for Eketahuna, via any of the routes through town or the bypass. Approximately 15 km north of Masterton you will see a double bend in the road, a 75 kph advisory sign and a bunch of pine trees ahead of you before the first bend. It is good advice to heed the speed limit because within about 100 metres on the left is the turn off down Kiriwhakapapa Road. Mount Bruce hall is on the corner, along with a sign mentioning Miki Miki school, but these are there just to confuse.
Drive down this side road for 5.89 km. The last two kilometres are gravel so it is best to keep below 100 kph on this bit as in places the drop into the river on the right will jar your fillings. There may also be farmers carrying out their daily work. At precisely 5.89 kilometres is 589 Kiriwhakapapa Road on the left – the number is on the gate. The gate should be open and a sign outside. Proceed through the gate and up the drive, slowly as I have to maintain it and shovelling gravel is no fun. Run over any rabbits on the way as they are a menace and when you get to the top there is plenty of parking.
At the end of the walk there will be coffee, tea, cake and buns.
Julian"
Bring a plate (preferably with food on it) to assist with catering for lunch. We will arrange this once we have an idea of how many are coming. If you need a ride please email me and we will arrange something for you. |

Join your fellow members, partners and friends for Christmas Dinner and other frivolities. 3 course menu for $60, drinks extra. Bellamys' has very quickly become one of the go-to restaurants on Wellington's amazing scene of fabulous eating houses. The innovation of Chef Josh Ross and Restaurant Manager Jasper Povey will leave you in awe of the amazing dining experience these two young guys create. For those that travel to Europe (sorry used to travel to Europe) think Michelin Star quality and style. And then you have the amazing setting of Bellamys. We will be dining in the Members Private Lounge. Menu will not be finalised until a week before as it is all based on what is available. Attached is the link to the current menu as an example: https://www.bellamysbyloganbrown.co.nz/new-zealand-cuisine Please advise food allergies etc in the comments box. We will start at 6pm for pre dinner drinks. If you arrive beforehand you can always go into Pickwicks Bar for a quiet apertif, on your own account of course. You must register to attend as your name needs to be at security to allow you up to the restaurant. Final RSVPs required by Sunday 6 December 6pm - PLEASE RE-READ THIS BIT!
