It used to have fields all around it, but that has changed with the growth of Auckland. Some short tracks, but mainly in the shade which is needed during the su...
Wow, I could return over and over again to get keto snacks. Very reasonably priced and the cafe seemed busy. I only wish I had bought more.
It was a quick stop on the way to Whanganui. You can easily park and then walk straight onto the platform. There is a decent view, but a path to get down to the...
My daughter wanted an afternoon swim. After putting on my wetsuit, it took little time to adjust to the temperature of the water. It gets deep pretty quickly. T...
Had dinner sitting on one of chairs by the wharf and the large ball. There was a small beach which seemed popular with dig walkers and throwing a stick in.
Around and around we go, all the way to the top. Reminded me of climbing up castle turrets. Worth a climb up with great views over Whanganui.
I was not expecting much from the winter garden. They had jazzed it up for Christmas with lots of scenes between the plants. It is worth a look through.
Stopped to take the dog for a walk and a swim. Large grass area and a path past the playback. There was lots of shaded areas further down the park.
Pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the trip. I walked up with the dog, and the family went up, but on the way back. I took the lift down with my younges...
We walked through and quickly out the other side of the Avery. On the other side were very small ducklings who were not scared of anything. The lake with the fo...
I think it would have been better for me to have come in the evening and seen it lit up. Walked up and then left. Not much to say about it.
Nice walk along the river, with wide paths. There were a lot of walkers and bikers. You can have a dog on a lead. There is some shade around the Esplanade, but ...
Really nice park, with a variety of things to do. $20 for a family to do mini golf. It's really popular with a backlog of players. Really large park. Dogs are a...
It seemed like quite a long drive on the gravel road to the start of the walk (18km). You will need a vehicle that can handle a very rocky road, but there were ...
Took the dog for a walk around the park. You can do the parks run and many years ago there was a obstacle race around the park. Don't know if they still do. The...
Finally, I got to do this walk, it has been on my list for a long time. I took the dog for a walk. You must keep dogs on a leash and are not allowed to swim at ...
Visited and camped near the beach many years ago. It is a beautiful part of the world. Took my girls snorkling for a couple of hours. Lots of fish, plankton, a...
As always, a beautiful lake. Head up to the top of the lake Glenorchy to go jumping off the wharf. Always wanted to do the shark that comes jumping out of the l...
Organised a very visit of 9-12 year old girls. The price was more than reasonable and the facilities were great. Some open spaces for evening games and clean co...
