One of the most interesting tramps that exists anywhere in the vicinity of Wellington is that across the Mount Hector track, 'between Greytown and Otaki. This walk can bo dono in two days, but there is so much to see and so many explorations that can ho carried out from the different huts that a week or a fortnight over tho journey could be tilled in with profit and pleasure. The present track runs through many miles of magnificent bush, where ' many birds now extinct in many parts of tile country find sanctuary. On the high points views extending over the whole territory south of Taranakj and Hawke's Bay, including the whole coast line of the Marlborough district, can frequently be had. In summer the tops of the Tararuns are practically one mass of bloom, the rare edelweiss and ranunculus being in evidence almost everywhere. In winter this nrca affords *a fine ski-frig ground, where snow-shoes can bo worn, ice-skating indulged in, and other amusements practised that ordinarily are not available to local residents. ' A movement is on foot to make the ' track better known, and to assist the Greytown and Otaki residents in their efforts in this direction a meeting for today is being, called in another column.
