Saha by Khawat | Ōmanawanui Hike

Saha by Khawat: Ōmanawanui Hike

Join us for the first Saha by Khawat group hike! 🤎

Saha is Khawat’s health, wellness and fitness series, creating a space for women of the diaspora to connect, get active and prioritise their wellbeing together.

Whether you’re an experienced hiker or just starting your fitness journey, this is your invitation to get outdoors, meet new girls and enjoy a day of fresh air, coastal views and sisterhood. No pressure to be the fastest or fittest — we’ll move together and go at a pace that works for the group.

📍 When & Where

Date: Sunday 15 November 2026
Meet-up: 9:00am outside Les Mills, New Lynn
Destination: Ōmanawanui Track, with a carpool to Whatipū Beach

🥾 About the Hike

• Approximately 6km return

• Around 2.5–3 hours of walking

• An out-and-back walk with beautiful coastal views

• We’ll adjust our pace and turnaround point to suit the group’s ability.

🎒 What to Bring

• Comfortable walking shoes with good grip

• Plenty of water

• Lunch and snacks

• Sunhat, sunscreen and sunglasses

• A rain jacket and warm layer

• A small backpack and fully charged phone

Good to Know

Whatipū is isolated, and mobile reception can be patchy, so download anything you need beforehand. Suggested parking at McCrae car park is $7 for the day, with secure parking.

A few hiking reminders: We stay together, the slowest person sets the pace, and we leave only footprints behind.

Come as you are, bring your water bottle and get ready to move, connect and build healthy habits with the girls. 🤎

We can’t wait to see you there!

Saha by Khawat — moving together, growing together.
