The Welly-moot, in association with The One Room Fan Museum, presents:
- Walk to Rivendell, 2018 -
We've got a fun event coming up for everyone - another visit to Rivendell in Upper Hut's Kaitoke Park. We haven't met there as a group since the official opening of the Elven Archway, courtesy of
LOTR Tour operator Ted Guise. I personally haven't been there for over a year, and I feel like a good walk! Who will join us?

The archway |
Here's the plan:
- Meet at the Kaitoke Forks Carpark (by the swing-bridge), at 10:00am
- Adjust costumes (Hell yes! In costume through the rainforest!)
- At
10:15 or so, we cross the swing-bridge, and walk the main track. It'll
take about 30-45 minutes, although possibly a bit longer depending on
costume.
- The end of the walk will get us to the Rivendell grassy lawn, where we unpack our picnics
- After the picnic, all join for a Welly-moot group photo by the Archway.
Plus anything else we can think of on the day, or before. We're open to ideas, so drop us a line anytime!
The
final plans will be published here as the time comes closer, so check
back here often. Please share on your social media as well - the more
the merrier!

In the meantime, here's a few photos from the original opening, to whet your appetites.

Looks like meat's back on the menu. We don't want to exclude anyone. Baby-food anyone? |
