Best places: Nature preserves in Kaipātiki, New Zealand

Tour agency providing educational rides aboard a marine research vessel to see whales & dolphins.

👍👍 Beautiful place and very peaceful. Great walk from Browns Bay to Rothesay Bay.

👍👍 I am coming to the end of a 2 day solo getaway and I cannot begin to describe how incredible this place is and how much it has helped me to heal. The hospitality, food, seclusion, bath tubs, bushwalks, bed, pillows, coffee and beauty of the wider property were all highlights. I feel so good knowing...

👍👍 Didn't even know these walks existed! We enjoyed our lockdown walks here. Nice and quiet and close to the ocean. Simply beautiful!

👍 The entrance is right next to Takapuna District Cricket Club. It's a short 20 minutes loop bush walk.

👍👍 Love this place, you could see lots of different mushrooms in winter.

👍👍 Excellent place to walk with a lot of beautiful sights... friendly people, but not very challenging in terms of difficulty. Sunsets are amazing.

👍👍 I am glad we chose this place last Saturday. It was really a great walking trail that offers so many different walks for different folks and you can choose a long or short trail or you can do all. The bush was lush, little stream running inside. Mu mates and I truly enjoyed it. Good for hiking, dog...

👍👍 Beautiful big park hidden away, near Devonport Museum. Great place to take your dog!

👍👍 Maltese Shitzu named Snaga gets so excited when he sees the park from the car window. He loves this park so much, he can't wait to get of car... all the sound of barking and crying... and teary eyes. Once he's on the ground every rock he has to do several markings... and probably at the rocks for 10...

👍👍 Good quiet spot in town for a walk or run. Connects to jaggers bush for those that want a longer run. Nice at sunset time.

👍👍 Peaceful, quiet, gave me hope of a dream come true. 😍

👍👍 Another hidden Massey gem. This area is an inanga spawning spot and the local primary school kids are working with council to conserve this special area. This secret suburban slice of kiwi bush is perfect for a small picnic and spot of swimming. Please do your bit and TAKE YOUR RUBBISH HOME.

👍 Spargo reserve is surrounded by trees. The older play park has now been updated with a new climbing frame and slides. Plenty of space to kick a ball around but no amenities. Not a common park in use so good if you want uninterrupted play.
