Motu Trails Charitable Trust

As always lots has been going on around the trails. Our general Motu Trails maintenance usually sees us on Pakihi Track once a week, more following a storm, and on the Dunes Trail about once every two weeks. (We had three slips up to 20m across to clear in September/October 2024.) Projects in the last eight months have included installing multiple sections of culvert pipe on the Pakihi, a set of pullup bars on the Dunes Trail, two culverts on the Waiotahe Trail, signage, plus doing a short trail realignment and section of resurfacing on the Dunes Trail, a bench seat on the Pakihi, repairing two shelters on the Motu Road, and plenty more. Once again 2024 saw three community planting days on the Dunes Trail, and week after week volunteer Peter clears the predator traps, which is why the bird life is increasing. Thank you to all the people who have chosen to ride/walk/run the trails, it's always great seeing people of all ages out there. Thank you too to all those who help in many different ways to keep it all happening. To those who make a donation to support Motu Trails, awesome and thank you, it does help us!
