Rooseville Park
Park
👍👍 Beautiful place. Forest is dying because there is no regrowth. Too much foot traffic or possibly pests eating the newly sprouting trees? Sad. Really a nice shaded walk, but also seems like something is eating the inside of the trees. Called MPI and Council, nobody is concerned. 🙁

Henrys Reserve
Park
😠 I travelled from central auckland to this reserve just to see some beautiful strem going through but the bush walk looked like this hasn't been touched for years, also there were two ways to go to the strem but both were closed! Inshort there's no way you can see stream , there should be markings at...

Mount William Walkway
Hiking area
👍👍 What a incredible walk! From the walk to the Forrest from car park it’s like you’re stepping into Jamangi or Jurassic Park, it’s stunning and all up hill from there! Once you get through the Forrest, it’s all open farm land and hopefully the cows will greet you! (They are all scaredy-cats) Keep foll...

Pukekohe lookout
Tourist attraction
👍 Nice place to take in some local views. Bonus that you can still drive to the top... unlike so many mountains in Auckland these days 🙁
A good amount of parking at the top too.

Samuel Miller Reserve
Playground
👍 The slide is awesome!!!!! Two for races and a fun balance course to get back to the top.
Funky storm drain under a communal table. A bbq for public use, plus walkways and other play equipment.
Shorter lawns would have been appreciated but still had loads of fun.

Pukekohe Showgrounds
Park
🫤 Ridiculous making pensioners climb back up a step hill to access their car. To add insult to injury the entry gate was now shut and roped off with no indication of how to get out!
Show was pretty much like any A&P show.

Pukekohe Hill Reserve
Park
👍 Cute hidden gem for walking the dog but not much else. Has a big grass area with spectacular views. Minimal parking at the summit and no walking tracks. Gate locked at night.

Puni MTB Trail
Park
👍 A great place to walk the dog. And, I guess, a great place to go if you have a mountain bike! I don't.
The bike tracks are maintained by the Puni MTB Club. I would love to see the jumps etc being used because they look like fun.
The area is an extinct volcano, and is the site of a Maori Pa. Unfortun...

Japanese Kitchen SAKURA
Japanese restaurant
👍👍 Super authentic Japanese flavour which takes me back to the time when I was home staying in Osaka! The flavour and atmosphere feels like you are eating at a Japanese friend’s house. Thank you for the wonderful food and memory.

Pokeno Waterfall
Tourist attraction
👍 Has a small 5 spot car park and is a very easy 5min walk to waterfalls base where you can swim. You can also get to top of waterfall if you walk up the road from car park 15m or so to bridge then turn down walkway
