Luck at Last
Thursday, 3 April 2025
Luck at Last Goldmine. You might not find any gold, but if you like an adventure, then your luck will surely be in! The track to the Luck at Last Stamping Battery is an easy stroll along an old carriage way bounded by native trees and the Wharekawa stream. You will find remains of assorted machinery and brick works left over from the 1897 workings. Further on upstream are the number 1 and number 2 mine drives.
Our meeting Place is Corner of Port Road and Harbour View Rd at Te Titoki Reserve, Whangamata 8.45am. We leave this meeting place at 9.00am sharp for all our Rambles. We carpool from there $2 each, traveling to the start of the walk. Cnr SH25 and Taungatara Road 7 km North of Whangamata, just past the Onemana turn off.
Return time approx 2.30pm.
Everyone brings their own day pack, water, food, wet weather gear, own medications, and own First Aid kits.
There is a possibility of harvesting in the area, if there is harvesting happening an alternative walk will be advised closer to the time.
