Tōtara Park Pools

“It's always a pleasure enjoying some family time at Totara park pools during the summer periods. Especially being an open outdoor pool, within a large park that is blanketed around trees and bush. It has a huge walkway throughout the park for people wanting to stroll through the park. It has a small park for the children and large fields so that you can set up your volleyball net or play relays with friends and family. There is lots of BBQ areas with loads of shade and has toilets that guest can use. If you haven't been and would like to swim it is also FREE so you don't have to worry about paying an entry fee only to purchase the swim nappies for your baby which at the moment cost $2.50 or you could take your own. Make sure to pack a large picnic and enjoy your time.”

“I love going for a walk around totara park theres so many different tracks to walk through and it's for beginners up to advance walker/runners they also have a bike track and the views from the top of the hill are amazing 👏”

“Awesome playground, and picnic area, and walks through the bush. Easy walks with pushchair suitable tracks, some stairs in other places. Dogs are welcome but on leash only. Lots of picnic tables and rubbish bins.”

“Even though facilities are looking a bit old and outdated (nothing a touch of paint couldn't fix) this location is an asset to the community. Working bbq, lots of shady trees and seating. Entry requires vaccine pass for 12 and up currently. Have definitely noticed less crowds here which is nice as it used to get quite packed”
