We prove that the near hexagon associated with the extended ternary Golay code has, up to isomorphism, 25 hyperplanes, and give an explicit construction for each of them. As a main tool in the proof, we show that the classification of these hyperplanes is equivalent to the determination of the orbits on vectors of certain modules for the group $$2 \cdot M_{12}$$2·M12.
