Starting point for a number of great walks. Our favourite is the Nikau Track, which starts from the Sculpture carpark on Gordons Rd. This track has hundreds of beautiful mature Nikau palms along with heaps of nature birdlife (listen out for Tuis and Kereru). Follow the Nikau track until the turnoff onto the Tarata track and then turn left onto the Central track. At the top of the Central Track is Batch Winery - which has stunning views back to Auckland. Great spot to refuel and then do the track in reverse (thankfully all downhill on way back!). Walk is about half an hour each way. Our kids 6 and 4 regularly walk the whole way but be warned there is a lot of stairs on the Central Track. You can also detour off and do the Cascades (small waterfall) which is definitely worth a look.
