Wairarapa Walking Festival 2023 - Dawn Thrive at Mt Dick

Join the Thrive Community Mt Dick summit and meet a welcoming group of people as you challenge yourself to ascend this local look-out. Meet at the turn-off from Dalefield Road.

A great get-fit option, with superb views, to ascend more than 300m to the summit of Mt Dick, at the edge of the Tararua Forest Park. Go at your own pace and feel supported by other enthusiasts.

This 520m mountain was named after Richard “Dickey” Sayers, who moved from Wellington with his family to the Wairarapa in 1859.
