For those keen to explore Pāpāmoa Hills under darkness tonight, there’s great news – Night Walk tickets are still for sale for some timeslots.

The Pāpāmoa Hills night walk – on tonight Saturday, August 5 from 5.30pm – is a fundraiser for the Tauranga Breast Cancer Support Services Trust.

The event offers a magical 5km night walk under the stars up Pāpāmoa Hills to the summit before winding down at Summerhill Mountainbike Park.

Walk times are staggered in waves – with a limited number of people per wave.

Tauranga BCSST fundraising coordinator Katie Ross Williams says there are still tickets available for the 7.30pm, 8pm and 8.30pm wave times.

“All other wave times have sold out.”

Once participants reach the top they’re treated to a warm drink and cake while enjoying breath-taking views of endless stars and twinkling lights below. Once finished, participants are transported down the hill via minivan.

A fun adventure for the moderately fit – and a fundraiser for Tauranga BCSST – the night walk also offers a meaningful time to remember loved ones who’ve had or are going through breast cancer.

Tickets are $35 per person and can be purchased online at: www.breastcancerbop.org.nz/fundraising
