Have you walked Northcote’s new treetop walk at Kauri Glen Reserve?
Despite being in the heart of suburban North Shore you will feel like you’re tramping in a remote national park. Rowdy Tui were dive-bombing each other through 300-400 year old kauri trees while I was sketching this view one evening.
The bridge is a short walk from the end of Kauri Glen Road, but I recommend a slightly longer walk, by starting on Lake Road and walking the connecting tracks through Cecil Eady Reserve which eventually links to Kauri Glen Reserve.
Completed just last year, the bridge is part of Te Ara Awataha – the Northcote greenway project developed by Auckland Council’s urban development arm Eke Panuku.
