Best Park in New Zealand

R	Rex Childerhouse on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely walk on a hot day, pleasant picnic spot with the sound of running water, reasonably busy, lots of dog walkers.
M	Maggie Thompson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A fantastic bush walk a real gem in our area. Never tire of visiting. Also toilets situated in the area outside the start of walk.
B	Bradley Hook on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Peaceful forest with easy walking track. Loved the river area at the end of the long loop. Great for kids.
T	Tony Arnott on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful spot with plenty of shade over a small stream, and surprisingly few people there, given the time of year. Great for little kids. Not really a swimming hole as such though, more a paddling area for preschool and primary school age kids, and enjoyable for anyone else too. Next time we go we'll try to remember some insect repellent as there were a few sandflies around where we set up our picnic mat. And my wife would bring a book as it's a perfect spot to sit and read while the kids play in the steam. It also has a bush walk across the road with at least two options: a short loop that is about 18 minutes long according to the sign near half way, and a long loop that I think is something like an hour long. We did the short loop. There were no steps so it should be fine for a pram. Lots of middle aged to mature looking native trees. A really pleasant stroll with the sun shining through giving it an awesome feel. There are some flush toilets at the start of the walk. There was a tap to wash hands with but no soap or dryer so if you're fussy about such things you may want to bring some sanitizer or something. I think this will become a new regular destination for us. Just a really pleasant relaxing place to spend an afternoon.

N	Natalie Cox on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Im old and unfit so struggled with the multitude of up and down steps of the Long Loop. It is a beautiful walk which I hope to do when I'm fitter though. The short loop is just as beautiful but doesn't make the unfit stumble for a stretcher at the end. Don't forget to go over road at end. Got a pretty area with stream, perfect to rest.
R	Robyn on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pretty, short bush walks and stream for picnics and paddles.
R	Royce Pedersen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Enjoy the easy 40 minute walk along a well formed track past giant Tawa, Rimu, Miro, Koekoe and Puketea trees (among many others of course). Or for a quick stroll, do the short 10 minute loop.
