Organiser: Jack Huygens

Note: starting time bumped forward to 8am

Ever heard of Wainui? It's a pretty stand-out peak along the Kapiti coast that (despite being pretty rarely travelled) has absolutely stunning views.
Time to make the most of the sudden sunny weather and head up there!

This walk is a decent 6hrs, with some steep terrain and potentially including some scrubby travel. Depending on how much time we have we might do some bonus bush-bashing around the summit of Wainui. I have to be back in Welly by around 6ish so we won't stay out too late.

Meet at 8am at the Wellington Railway Station, where we will take the Kapiti line (at 8:13) up the coast.
We'll get off at Pukerua bay station at 8:50, where we'll meet up with Vic and drive to the start of the walk.
Bring enough food for the day since we won't be passing any food stops along the way! I recommend grabbing some food at the railway New World. And bring lots of water.

$4.07
