This replaces the Tupapakurua Falls tramp, the plan is to have 5 short and easy walks in the Rangitikei area, starting with Sutherland Mangahoe Reserve, then it to Laird's Reserve, and then onto Bruce Park Scenic Reserve. Final walks of the day are at Pryce's Rahui Reserve and Dudding Lake, depending on the time. At Sutherland we will complete the two shorter tracks (Red & Yellow), Lairds, Bruce Park & Duddins are all single loop tracks. At Pryces we will complete the exterior tracks (Yellow & Blue)
FITNESS REQUIREMENT: Most of these walks are mostly flat with only small hills, while Lairds Reserve is a little bit hilly. There can still be some steep areas and uneven ground
DISTANCE: 6-8km approx
ELEVATION GAIN: 80m approx
