Sport Wellington’s June Buggy Walk
Sport Wellington
Buggy Walks are a free event occurring every month. The
walks take place at a different
location every month and aim to provide parents and caregivers with the opportunity to discover some of the
many buggy friendly walking tracks throughout the Wellington region.
The monthly Buggy Walks usually attract around 100 – 300 participants. The walks vary in length and difficulty
but will usually take 45 – 60 minutes to complete. With no registration necessary, everyone is encouraged just
to show up and take part. Participants can also take advantage of a free BBQ from Southern Cross Garden Bar
and Restaurant, spot prizes and giveaways.
