Tāmaki Explorer: Churchill Park to Point England Coastal Circuit

Escape the city bustle and immerse yourself in an incredible four-to-five-hour loop through the untamed beauty of East Auckland.
Starting in the rolling, unique farmlands of Churchill Park, this diverse walk sweeps you along the pristine wetlands of Tahuna Torea and down the stunning, paved boardwalks of Wai-o-Taiki Nature Reserve.
Tracking the edge of the sparkling Tāmaki Estuary all the way to Point England Beach, you will enjoy panoramic water views and vibrant native birdlife before heading inland to skip between reserves back to Churchill Park.
Combining coastal vistas, native bush tracks, and open green pastures, it is the ultimate weekend escape right in the city's backyard.

Distance: Approx 13 - 15 km.
