âIt is a nice playground near the public toilets with a car park. There is a big circuit nearby that you can walk around. You can let youe dogs off the lead to walk around it and there is a place where dogs can go for a swim.â

Overview
Waiatarua Reserve in Remuera combines a family playground, a pond, and a 2.8 km circular walking trail within a large open off-leash reserve. The pond provides a scenic point for walkers and water access for dogs. The open, often-windy character of the reserve makes it a kite-flying destination. A car park sits adjacent to the reserve with public toilets nearby. The trail winds through varied terrain with enough undulation to make the circuit engaging for all ages.
