Totara Park

Reviewed By JamesM780 - Auckland, New Zealand

My lovely wife and a friend of ours went to Totara Park for a picnic on the weekend. There are plenty of picnic tables next to the carpark in Wairere Avenue. The trails around the park and the adjacent Botanic Gardens are well maintained, and even after rain, are pretty dry. Some of the trails wind around the lovely creek and give the place an almost tropical rainforest feel. The paths higher up are over the fields and have views which are simply stunning. Well worth enjoying.

Oakley Creek Walkway

Reviewed By KateF168 - Auckland Central, New Zealand

Perfect length bush walk for young kids. We started at the Phyllis street reserve however you could start closer towards Mt Albert if you wanted to walk further. A lovely flat walk about 15 mins to the waterfall along a shady stream through Bush. The waterfall is about 5m & if you are lucky sometimes there are kids jumping off. (However its Sign posted not to jump).
