The XY Tramping Club has been renamed Ōtepoti Tuesday Trampers
Ōtepoti Tuesday Trampers (Club) is a social and supportive walking group for over 50s based in Dunedin. We go tramping in the wider Dunedin area every Tuesday throughout the year.
Weekly Tramps in the Dunedin region
The tramps are typically of 4-7 hours duration and usually visit tracks in the wider Dunedin area or travel to interesting places within about an hour’s drive of Dunedin.
There is a designated leader for every tramp, who is assisted by three deputy leaders. They will recce the track in advance.
On the day the leader will explain the route before the main group sets off. During the tramp the leaders will be spread throughout the group, carefully monitoring those on the tramp. The club is particularly safety conscious. Locator beacons are always carried by one or more of the leaders.
Join us
New members are always welcome. You need to complete three tramps before joining the club. This gives you time to evaluate what our club does, and make an informed decision as to whether it is for you or not.
You also need to be nominated and seconded by two current members. The current annual subscription is $10.00. If you are interested then please refer to the Contact page.
The club runs as a cooperative and all members are expected to help organise and lead tramps. As a new member you will be given time to settle in, and to work out the kind of tramp you can help with, depending on your level of experience and fitness.
