Keen to get into New Zealand’s great outdoors but don’t know where to start? No question is too stupid for WTMC bushcraft .
This weekend course will to teach you the basics about what to take, what to expect and how to look after yourself. It’s designed for people over the age of 18 who are interested in tramping with our club in the future.

And you’ll stay at the club’s hut in the Orongorongos, an easy two-hour tramp from the carpark.
When: the weekend of 9-10 March (plus a gear session on Wednesday 6 March at 7pm) Cost: $55 (includes transport and accommodation at Paua hut ) Sign up: either put your name on the sign up sheet at the club rooms on a Wednesday night, or email
