Walk into Deeper History

 

Walk into Deeper History

From Maungawhau to Pukekawa

Saturday 7th June 2025

Bookings are essential as places are limited to 20

We will meet at 9am at Friend and Whau cafe, Maungawhau/Mt Eden to start the morning with coffee and a look at the interactive display of the history of this maunga.

This pilgrimage is about walking into sites between Maungawhau and Pukekawa /The Auckland Domain that are very familiar and yet hold important history that is not immediately apparent, nor well known.

This includes the site of one of the Auckland homes of the first Māori King and the first Auckland Māori chapel.

Our journey will end with a glass of wine or cup of tea at Rangipuha, back in Mt Eden.

This is a free pilgrimage but be prepared to buy lunch, coffee and any supplies you may need along the way.

We always offer our speakers/leaders koha which will be collected on the day..
