30/10/2024. 3 Kings from Heenan Road. Grade 3 Hikers. Leaders Dave Roberts Neville Griffiths.
On a chilly calm Morning 18 hikers set off from Mosgiel at 9am to pick up one hiker at Outram
From there we will walk to the top to 3 Kings having morning tea on the way up.
The track was a well formed farm track; it was a steady climb through bush with several stops to enjoy the views of Lake Waipori Lake Waihola and wider Taieri.
We had a leisurely lunch at 12 noon amongst the sheltered bush.
We walked up a rougher steep track until we reached 3 Kings.
We headed back down the track to the vehicles
In the afternoon it was a hot warm day and we finished by having a drink at the Blend in Outram.
Thank you Michelle and Steve for giving us permission to enter your property .
Distance travelled 12kms

I am enjoying Barbara’s comments LOL. You had to be there right ? I was so worn out I went to sleep in the bath, lucky it wasn’t a big enough bath to drown in.
Good day out tho.
