Organiser: Rewa Walker

Come along for a classic northern Tararua tramp! This trip will be medium hard with a decent amount of elevation and open tops travel but days shouldn't be longer than about 8hrs. Group size limited to 5 as we'll only take one car and most of the huts only sleep 6. I don't have a car (but have a full licence so could drive someone else's) so the trip will be dependant on someone with a car signing up. There's a little bit of flexibility with dates so if you're keen but the dates don't quite line up, sign up anyway and we'll see if we can make it work!

Day One: Walk from Putara road end to Dundas Hut via Herepai. Approx. 7hrs. 

Day Two: Walk to Arete Forks Hut via Dundas Ridge and Arete Hut. Approx. 8hrs. 

Day Three: Walk to Cattle Ridge Hut via Cattle ridge. Approx. 5.5hrs. Or we could go another 2hrs to Roaring Stag Hut. 

Day Four: Head out to Putara road end. Approx 6hrs from Cattle Ridge Hut or 4hrs from Roaring Stag Hut. 

TBD
