Organiser: Tommy Bollinger

Paekākāriki Escarpment Track on Kāpiti Coast – WellingtonNZ

A trip perfect for anyone and everyone! We will be catching the train up to Pukerua Bay, from there you can take your pick of running, or walking the track! Once we reach Paekakariki we will all regroup, hang out at the cafe and maybe even hit the beach for a swim. Then all bundle back on the train from Paekakariki into Wellington

 

Public Transport Special!

Meeting at Wellington Station we will catch the Kapiti Line train, departing at 8:44am, and riding up to Pukerua Bay. Everyone heads off in two groups, one running, one walking, whatever you feel like is great! At the end of the trail we will all meet back up and hopefully enjoy some sun in Pae before travelling back to Wellington on the train.

What to bring!

Nice active-wear, a backpack, warm layer + windbreaker, sunhat, lunch/snacks, water (1L+), money + snapper for trains and cafe food etc.
