  A chance to experience Wellington's original native bush with a superb treetop walk. Native birds are sure to greet you. And only 10 minutes from town.

  Great place for a walk when the weather turns bad. Nice and sheltered from the wind. Would be excellent if the dog could walk off the leash.

  Great day out. Good variety of short - medium length walks. Recommend checking out the 800+ year old Rimu tree. Great location for a picnic in warmer weather as a BBQ is supplied.

  Amazing place right on Wellington's doorstep. Gradients to suit all levels of fitness. If you do a loop track - go anti clockwise, unless you want to feel like you've done a step class! All kinds of bush. Apparently it's what Wellington used to be like before trees were cut down to make land for homes. There are fantastic examples of epiphytes up close, a canopy walk, plenty of info boards explaining the type of bush you are currently in, paths that are suitable for push chairs and wheelchairs, a lawn for hanging out on or having a tea party or flying a kite, fantastic seats with viewpoints, a wee creek to see and/or experience. Best of all it's an amazing place to go to on a hot day to keep out of the sun & to get some exercise. The place is free to visit, though donations are hugely appreciated.
