Auckland parks the natives you have there are brilliant Nice place to walk the dog, I usually walk it most days with my dog and have never had a bad encounter. Also a nice place to have a picnic. A lovely peaceful walkway with native bush, birds and nice glimpses of city and harbour along the way And beach at the bottom

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Reviewers call it a hidden gem with everything a family needs in one spot. The native bush is a highlight β€” bellbirds and other native species are audible on the walking tracks, and the walk to the waterfront gives the visit a sense of exploration beyond the playground. The BBQ area and toilets make it easy to extend a visit.

β€œBeautiful setting and environment. Children play ground as well as walking tracks, one of which leads down to water front. Grounds gets very soggy on wet winters, this is so to the basketball court, paly ground, refer photos. Good summer picnic spot, quite and a hidden gem.”
