Rameka Track
FMC recently wrote in support of a proposal by Tasman District Council to redesignate part of the Rameka Pack Track from roadway to track allowable only for cyclists and pedestrians. Project Rameka is an excellent and generous initiative led by Wellington cyclists Jonathan Kennett and Bronwyn Wall which is creating a fantastic recreational opportunity, with a conservation bent, for the people of Golden Bay. Ride the Rameka Track down to Project Rameka and Takaka next time you are over that way.
FMC’s local executive member in the Nelson region is Pat Holland of Nelson Tramping Club, contact Pat on 03 539 1340.

FMC made its first submission opposing the scheme in 2016, celebrated it being declined in 2019, and has spent the past 12 months fighting for a voice through the Fast-Track process. Throughout it all, FMC has been advocating for the Waitaha, publicly and behind the scenes.
FMC has submitted on a proposed land exchange that would see 29.7 hectares of conservation land in the eastern Ruahine Forest Park swapped for 170 hectares of private land, to enable the construction of a dam and reservoir on the Makaroro River.
