AOEC & LODGE NEWS

UPDATE 19 March 2018---Lodge By Pass Track

Most of the work has been completed on a by-pass track from the public car park to the short loop track which means that the public will no longer be required to walk up the road and past the lodge, increasing privacy and improving Health and Safety for our clients. The track makes the walk to the N/S track and water hole and the short loop track a better experience. Another DoC volunteer day will be held on 28 March to do further work on the track.Thanks to DoC and especially to Warren Gerraghty whose skills are much appreciated.

UPDATE 19 March ---Nature Trail- phase 2
