Join us for our Auckland Girl Hiking Club event as we explore the stunning Wairoa Dam Lookout Loop in the Hunua Ranges. This 7.6km loop takes approx. 2 hours 40 minutes to complete and takes you through peaceful native forest, past tranquil streams, and offers sweeping views over the Wairoa Reservoir. We’ll be starting at the Wairoa Dam Carpark and making our way around the loop track, which includes a steady incline and some uneven terrain. Expect a mix of shaded bush trails, exposed ridgelines, and lush scenery. This hike is a great way to move your body, reconnect with nature, and meet other outdoorsy girls within our community.
In the event of rain, this event will be postponed to Saturday 7th March. Refunds will not be provided if you are unable to attend the postponement date, so please ensure you are available for both dates when purchasing a ticket.
Where: Meet at the Wairoa Dam Carpark, Hunua Ranges.
Parking: There is a car park with plenty of free parking available.

Optional: If you’d like to connect with the other girls before the hike, organise carpooling, or let the group know if you’re running late on the day, feel free to message Damaris on Facebook here after purchasing your ticket and she can add you to the group chat.
