Good and walking tracks along the river, Hatea River. Easy walk while enjoying the swamp, mature trees and bushes at the hilly green zone of Whangarei. The approx. 9 km long track divided into 3 section, named 1A, 1B and 1C. Section IA is from Whangarei Falls to Paranui Falls, near AH Reed Tree Top Track.

The tracks are easy walking grade, good gravel road with few steps, timber walkways, a bit undulating but they are OK for any group of ages.

What a lovely place to take the dog (or kids) for a walk! Beautiful, peaceful and safe. I love the atmosphere, lovely restaurants, shops to browse in, delicious ice cream and both ample toilet facilities and water fountains. I can't wait for my weekly visit!
