Description

Tucked away in the back streets of Ngaio is this small reserve. There is a large grassy area for walking the dogs, and a track through the bush through a small gully and across a tiny stream. The track through the bush isn't well marked - looks like it has been created by the residents rather than a council project. If you start the track from Makererua Street the track is easy to follow.

Getting there

At the end of Makererua Street there are some steps leading up to Heke St (which is near the intersection with Huntleigh Park Way). The track leads off to the right from the base of the steps. From the grassy area of Orleans Reserve there are access ways into the bush in several areas.

Other notes

The track isn't well marked through the bush.
