Greetings Everyone - Join us on Sunday as we walk from the NZ Maritime Museum to Meadowbank using the Te Ara ki Uta ki Tai boardwalk, returning on the train.
🟡 Some words to Inspire you:
Discover the ultimate urban crossing by conquering this stunning 12-kilometre trail from Viaduct Harbour to Meadowbank.
This scenic trek tests your legs on the panoramic heights of Paritai Drive, weaves around Hobson Bay, and dives into the rich cultural landscape of the Pourewa Walkway before entering the quiet, bird-filled native canopy of Kepa Bush.
After completing your journey along the sweeping Te Ara ki Uta ki Tai boardwalk, take a relaxing train ride from Meadowbank to Britomart to wrap up the day at Slattery & Sons on Quay Street.
