Walk and Talk French - Marchez en parlant français
Next walk / La prochaine balade

​The next walk is 11am on 8th December to Rush Pool, "a return to the stone age", 3 hours return starting from the Maitai dam. This link is recommended for more information
The walk is a steady climb to the pond with a few steep pinches, making it of 'medium' difficulty. The landscape is a natural mineral belt so is low scrub and exposed, making it potentially quite cold or hot depending on the weather, so come prepared! That's also a good reason to start a little earlier at 11am and have lunch at the ponds. Allow 20-25 minutes driving from the Nelson CBD to the dam, and drive up past the dam spillway to the carpark.

Please send any queries to Paul by using the online form.
