Hi team,
Just wondering if anyone could recommend a place for a good walk near Martinborough (Wairarapa), just going over there for the weekend for some R&R but I think I'll find sitting around a bit boring after only a few hours!
I don't have the dog either, I have permits for all surrounding DOC land just not sure where might be better than others, I have all corresponding topos. Cheers.
Marinborough is pretty much halfway between the Tararuas and Aorangi
Tararuas: waiohine gorge or holdsworth entrances
If you head to the bottom entrance of Aorangi, the drive to Cape Paliser lighthouse is nice
Chur, just been looking at the map - were we going to go up to Southerland Huts one time?
Yup, take Haurangi Rd to Waikuku Lodge road end, that's probably closest to Martinborough
Yep, Sutherland's. if you have still got CraigC's (my son) cell phone number, ring him for instructions. He will put you right.
Guard his secrets though, eh.
With my life :) don't have his number sorryQuote:

Good grief. It's Sutherland's. Its like giving instructions on how to get to the Wellington railway station. :)Quote:
