Kuputuhi e Wātea Tūmatanui ana
During the late 1920s a group of people associated with the University of Auckland frequently walked together under the name of 'The Sundown Strollers'.
In 1929, the inaugural Alpine Sports Club meeting was held at Prof Algie's Remuera home; in attendance were the Sundowner Strollers and six others. With a foundation membership of twenty, the Club was set up to cater for a wide range of mountain and outdoor interests including tramping, mountaineering, skiing, camping, caving, canoeing and outdoor recreation. Since its inception, Alpine Sports Clubs has grown to be the second largest tramping and skiing club in the country with over 500 members (2011).
The Alpine Sports Club owns two lodges on Mt Ruapehu with a total of 56 beds and a newly refurbished bush hut in the Waitakere ranges to the west of Auckland (2011).
The club runs popular summer camps for family members in various parts of New Zealand but mainly in the North Island. These are planned for the week between Christmas and New Year and have been very well supported since their establishment in 1969.

E hangaia tonutia ana te kohinga tuihono a Tāmaki Paenga Hira; tāpirihia ai ngā whakahoutanga me ngā pūkete i ia wiki. I ētahi wā, kāore anō kia whakaūhia ngā pūkete e ngā kaimahi o Te Whare Taonga, tēnā pea he hapa kei roto i ngā kōrero.
