Eezee tramps

Unsure of your fitness? Try an Eezee tramp

For those interested in joining the club but unsure of their abilities, we offer Eezee tramps.

These outings are organised on a one-to-one basis, with an experienced club tramper accompanying you on a pleasant and non-strenuous walk, so that both can get some idea of how you’ll fare on an organised tramp, which range from easy to hard.

The key here is safety for you and your fellow trampers – so that everyone enjoys the trip.

The contact for an Eezee tramp is Kelvin Shaw, our New Member Coordinator.

He can be reached at y2kshaw50@gmail.com

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.
