Day Hike Series - Brooklyn Wind Turbine

Updates

1. Postponed to 16th November Saturday. Might move to 17th November Sunday if weather is not great.
2. Increased to 8 slots now!

Introduction:

I see that day hikes aren't as common here so thought of starting a series! I'll be exploring Wellington trails for the first time and would love company

Click here to see how much innocent kids love this track! Nothing scary!

Agenda:

1. Meet at Hunter Car Park at 9:30 am for carpooling (first 4 people to join my group below) or directly at Pohill Reserve entrance

I can take 4 people with me in my car (No fuel fees will be charged from me!). Else public transport is there or if anyone can arrange a second car. Lot of buses go near there after which you can expect 5 to 20 mins of walking to location.

2. Get to Pohill Reserve Entrance at 10 am (arrive at 231 Aro Street, Aro Valley, Wellington 6021)

Quick icebreaker before we embark. I want to practice getting better at photography and will ask everyone beforehand if they are comfortable being clicked!

3. Walking time!

About 2 hours! Close to 3 if you break a lot which I doubt we will!
 

4. Post Walk Indulgence (Optional)

I love a good cup of coffee with a snack and shit chat after a walk. There is Aro Cafe, Aro Bake and Garage Project nearby.
