Monday's walk 13th July 2026

There is rain coming this way. To try and escape it, or at least be near the edge, the plan is to drive to Hawea Flat, turn right down Kane Road for 1.5km and park at the end of Hawea Back Road. Plan A is to then do a car shuffle to John's Creek, so we can walk 8km along the quiet gravel road.
Plan B we just walk part way up the road and return to the cars.
Petrol $10
Leader: Brian Gilbert
Only the leader turn up so the walk was cancelled.

Monday's Walk 6 July 2026

As cold southerly showers are forecast for Wanaka and local areas till afternoon, with snow down low on the hills, this Monday’s walk is cancelled. Enjoy a cosy day with a good book and wait for a view of the snow covered hills.
