Easter Weekend – Ureweras

No Meeting at Glen Eden
I propose to leave Auckland early on Easter Friday and head to the bach at Ohope.
We would camp on the Friday night at the bach which is near the beach and swim.
The next day, Easter Saturday, we could do a day walk in the Ureweras. I have been in this area and there is beautiful
bush and bird life and the kokako are well established and we saw and heard them. After the tramp we can head back
to the bach for a swim. There is a lovely cafe up the road with takeaways and fresh fish for dinner. We would go home
early to midday on Sunday to beat the traffic into Auckland.
It is my brother’s bach and he is happy for us camp on the lawn, not enough room for everyone inside. I have spare tents if you need one. We would pay a nominal amount for water and power. He possibly would come on the tramp with us, so we would have his expert guidance. Peter is the President of the Whakatane tramping club.
Please contact Lynne if you are interested who can arrange carpooling.
