Walking New Zealand Monthly Photo Contest
Above middle : Absolutely brilliant hike... coming back along the North South Track from Te Rereatukahia Hut. Super Happy to get back into our local wilderness. Thanks to the team who do an amazing job of maintaining this track! Photo by Gail Francis, Tauranga. Above top: My partner Chris at the top of our climb on the Makara Walkway, Wellington. Absolutely worth the climb. Check out the view from the top, to the left the wind wands, down the hill to the right the old gunnerys and in front the wide open beauty of New Zealand. Can’t wait to do this coastal walk again, and others.... spectacular! Photo by Racheal Young , Feilding.
