   Auckland’s unique working farm city park open to all and gifted to the people by a true visionary. Thank you Sir John Logan Campbell! Gifting 230 acres in 1901 was no small thing and today we get to enjoy it. A park estate like somewhere in England, amazing trees, Kauri mini forest, stainless steel BBQ areas with bins and toilets close to parking. Amazing cottage and bistro buildings plus walkways everywhere. Go and treat yourself and come for the soo pop ring blossom if you can.

   It is a big and beautiful place to walk, relax, and enjoy nature. There are lots of trees, open fields, and animals like sheep. You can walk up to One Tree Hill for a great view of Auckland. It’s a peaceful spot for a picnic or a nice day out.

   Cornwall Park looks absolutely stunning during cherry blossom season! The trees are full of delicate pink blooms, and it’s such a peaceful, scenic place to walk around or take photos. However, it can get very crowded on weekends with lots of people doing photoshoots. I’d suggest visiting on a weekday or early morning if you want a quieter experience and better photos. Definitely worth the visit!

   A very tranquil park that winds in amongst sheep and cattle paddocks, including the ability to enter the sheep paddock and get close to them. Very green. Paved sidewalks and road for easy walking access. Nice for an afternoon stroll.

   An absolutely stunning park that possesses rugged hillside, tranquil orchids, active farmland, manicured gardens and a wonderful 360 degree view of the city. Lovely to visit all year round but particularly during spring and autumn. Needs multiple visits to be properly explored in full! A great place to go with the dog, but just be aware that some areas are off limits to dogs during certain times of years.

   A clean fresh and safe park for morning walk, amongst sheep and vows, but on city fringe. Access to One Tree Hill top opened for walkers. Cafe inside the park is super nice, bean bags are available for having breakfast on grass
