   This is truly and amazing park....whether you just want to sit and relax, walk, jog etc.....and a fur kid's "heaven". However, people are sadly not adhering to the signs that dogs should be on leashes....especially if they are "killer" breeds...German shepherds, rottweilers, etc....our small fur kids, on a leash, wash charged by a rottweiler recently. And everyday since, the incident it seems there are now even more stupid people walking their big dogs off leash...the park joins with Auckland Botanical gardens

   A jewel in Auckland. The park incorporates the Botanical Gardens and Mountain Bike tracks, walking/running tracks and a bridal path. Also located here is a public swimming pool in summer and tennis courts. Definitely worth a visit.

   Totara Park is a fantastic spot that truly has something for everyone. The park features beautiful bush walks with well-marked pathways leading to various scenic spots and even connecting to the Botanical Gardens. With routes suited to all fitness levels, you can take a leisurely stroll or challenge yourself with a more intense walk. It’s a popular spot for dog walkers and runners - especially those tackling the famous 100 steps (if you know, you know!). Despite the lively atmosphere, there are plenty of peaceful moments to enjoy the tranquility of the surrounding trees. Families will love the playgrounds - one near the main car park and another hidden along one of the trails. The park also offers a great café, tennis courts, public swimming pools, and well-maintained facilities, including toilets and plenty of seating. Whether you're looking for an active day out or a quiet escape, Totara Park is an absolute gem!

   I grew up around this place - used to have a paper round that passed by it (back when it was surrounded by fields) and I still like to pop back and visit on occasion. Though it always seems smaller than I remember. There are some great bush walks, a nice picnic area, and in the summer, swimming pools.

   I take the loop from Redoubt Road and it’s about 3km with hills - the dog loves roaming and playing with other dogs and it’s a great walk when the weather is nice.

   Hands down this is now my favorite park in the North Island! Absolutely pristine with so much space! Its huge! There are ample of tracks for walker and some amazing areas and trails for mountain bikers. There are also picnic areas and lots of off street parking around most of the park. The lookout is spectacular but you cannot drive up at this point in time. However it's a very short walk from the street. We spent a good couple of years here and only saw a tiny portion of the park. Only thing to note there are limited toilets here.
