4) Following on from our Working Bee at the Opouahi Kiwi Creche we have been asked by ECOED if anyone is available to volunteer to transport Kiwi Eggs and or Chicks to/from Mount Bruce to Napier. If you feel you could be available for this vital process please let me know so that more details can be sorted.

About us

We are a group of like-minded people who love the great outdoors. We tramp mostly in the Hawke’s Bay province, in remote areas such as the Kaweka and Ruahine Ranges; but we also travel longer distances to new places, for longer walks.

The Napier Tramping Club was established in 1974 and has about 70 members. We belong to the Federated Mountain Clubs of NZ Inc (FMC) and run Saturday, full-weekend and Wednesday tramps, every fortnight.

Interested in joining us?

Enjoy the great outdoors, keep fit and get to know others with similar interests.
