★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great walks from very easy to difficult. Dam has amazing views. Check council listings as some tracks are closed due to Kauri dieback.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice 30 mins walk from the parking area, going back up is a good exercise.
The Dam itself is nicely constructed, the view looking towards Waitakere range is just magnificent. Lots of walkways branching out from the driveway, you can take sometime exploring, see those Kauri trees.
Public toilet on site but very stinky.
Stairs going down to the bottom of the Dam which is quite nice, but again coming back up is a big challenge for your knees.
Overall nice experience for family walkabout.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A dam that was built in 1910, a very old engineering, prob the earliest engineering that NZL has ever done. It is one of 10 dams in Auckland, still providing water to Auckland people. At the moment it is about 72% full due to the drought. We really need to conserve water, water is precious.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The carpark at the top is small, so make sure you come earlier or you'll miss out on a space; it's a nice easy walk down on a sealed road, and then you get to the dam which is breathaking! Well worth 2 hours of your time!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The walk path is beautiful, although very short. Something should really be done about the stinky public toilet, this is why only 3 stars.
In the end of the path there was a little secret left by someone on a natural niche shelf of the slope. Really made me smile
