Sunday 19th April Woodhill Forest – Muriwai

We were really lucky with the weather and had a great morning – see photos

Meet at 9.45am for a 10.00am start

See flyer for full details.

Join us for our next club walk in Muriwai Forest. Bring your family, dogs, leads, suitable walking shoes and, if you wish, some snacks and water.  Walk can be up to 2 hours long so ensure your dogs are reasonably fit. Dogs can run free once we are in the forest but should be on leads before the walk starts.  These walks are not suitable for puppies under 10 months old.  Remember towels for wet dogs at the end of the walk!

There is a very nice cafe near the Muriwai beach and those who want to usually call in
there to refresh themselves after the walk.

I won’t be able to be at this walk but if you have any queries please ring any of;
Pat Woollaston 02749449143
Mike Gething 0272442143
Sally Felton 0272294803

Directions
Take Highway 16 to Helensville and take the Muriwai turnoff. When you get to Muriwai, follow the main road down the hill until you get to the Fire Station, turn right along Coast Road and drive past the Golf course to the car park where the walk will start. Entrance to the walk is across the road, so dogs on leads there. Click here for map of where we meet.

We are always looking for new places to go to for our Club walks. If you know of
any please tell me (Sally, see number above) or anyone on the Committee. They need
to be areas where dogs can be safely off lead and with no worries of stock which
could be upset.

See here for photos taken at our last walk at this location.

Sunday 15th February 9.00am Whitford Forest

A few photos have been added from this walk to show the happy, muddy Labradors who were there

See flyer for full details
Meet at 8.45am and start the walk at 9.00am. Do bring drinks with you
plus any food you may need. Clothes suitable for the weather and comfortable shoes. The tracks are firm but there are water holes which the dogs will make full use of so it would be sensible to bring dog towels.

Dogs should be reasonably fit and under control. These walks are not suitable for dogs under 10 months of age and with the hot weather it can be quite hard for the older dogs. It is not restricted to members so family and friends are very welcome. We walk for about two hours or until everyone has gone far enough so it can be quite tough for small children.

Directions
Drive through Whitford and follow the Whitford/Maraetai Road. This becomes
Maraetai Drive and takes you down to the Maraetai beach and a round-about. At this round-about you turn right into Rewa Road which is twisty and takes you back to theforest. At the end of Rewa Road is where we meet. There are houses around so please park carefully and do not block anyone’s drive.
Keep your dogs on leads until we go into the forest.
