Western Springs Lakeside Park

Park

👍👍 A lovely park with pond, close to Motat, Auckland Zoo, and the Western Springs Stadium. Just make sure that you aren't wandering around after sunset; as there are plenty of dodgy people lurking around once it gets dark. You can find plenty of swans, ducks and pokeko. You will also find some chickens...
