Twenty people turned out for the Wenderholm Wanderings track on Sunday 2 February.  We started with the usual intros and a short prayer of thanks. The days weather was a beautiful and very sunny and windless day. Setting off at 2:20pm, from just inside the main gates of the park, we walked towards the  highway and onto the Perimeter Track. At Kokoru Bay, we stopped for a breather and to admire the view across the bay to Wairewa, only for some to notice the kereru perched in the tree just above our heads.

We turned, to start the uphill walk, which a few people struggled with, to the look out over the cliff tops to the wonderful view of the Hauraki Gulf and to the north to the Mahurangi peninsular and the Puhoi River.

The sea breeze was a welcome feeling. We walked to Couldrey House and walked around the grounds.
