Join me for a relaxing nature walk to explore the beautiful Hunter Region Botanic Gardens at Heatherbrae, with its 125 hectares of stunning native plants, wildlife, and peaceful trails. Our Gardens guide will share their knowledge and enthusiasm for the different theme gardens with acacias, banksias, grevilleas, succulents, ferns and palms as well as bush tucker plantings. Together we’ll have time to chat with friends along the way and enjoy being surrounded by native bushland with large forest trees and many birds.

The Botanic Gardens is also an inspiring non-profit organisation of volunteers dedicated to plant conservation and protecting the natural environment. Their Visitor Centre has a cafe, gift shop and interesting reference library. After the walk we’ll have time to relax and enjoy conversation with coffee or something to eat in the Kookaburra Cafe.

Guided tour exploring the Hunter Region Botanic Gardens: Heatherbrae

Hunter Region Botanic Gardens

Join me for an early morning walk along Wellington's beautiful waterfront, followed by coffee together at one of the beach-side cafes. Browse the Sunday markets afterwards with food truck kai & live buskers

For people who enjoy a peaceful start to the day by the ocean and some warm company to enjoy afterwards, all within the creative, colourful, food paradise background of the Sunday Morning Markets.

Dogs are welcome and in winter Oriental Bay is leash-free, so they can enjoy a play on the beach.

The Harbourside Markets are Wellington's best weekly market, with a huge range of fresh produce stalls, artisan and conscious food producers, crafts and sweet treats as well as a mouthwatering range of food trucks serving the best street food and coffee, accompanied by fantastic live music artists.

AGENDA
We'll meet at 'Solace in the Wind' The Naked Man sculpture (pictured) at the back of Te Papa on the boardwalk. I'll be there from 7:45am and we start walking at 8:00am.
We'll walk across the bridge past the marina, follow the waterline by the boat sheds and out to the concrete slab headland for views, then along Oriental Bay to the fountain.
Depending on the weather and the group, on the way back we may wander on to the beach for a paddle or play with the dogs, if it's fine we can coffee at Gelissimo right on Freyberg beach, or be a little cosier inside at Raglan Roast. We finish at the markets for those that wish to browse, eat, shop and enjoy the live buskers.

\*We'll go ahead rain or shine! So bring whatever you need to be warm and dry :)

\*This is a dog-friendly event.

Join me for a nature walk along the Frankston Foreshore and through the beautiful Sweetwater Creek Reserve. We will begin this outdoor adventure walking along the Coastal Path beside the beach and out along the Frankston Pier.

From there we will join the boardwalk as it winds through a beautiful habitat restoration of native plants and trees. This foreshore reserve is significant for its cultural history, geology and biodiversity. We will make our way to the Oliver's Hill lookout to take in the stunning skycapes across the water before stopping at the Little Olly's Coffee van for a coffee and a snack by the water's edge.

After that we'll venture into the peaceful Sweetwater Creek Reserve which has remnant bushland protected for its cultural heritage value. We may encounter a variety of native birds as we walk alongside the creek with its huge granite boulders and outcrops.

The walking distance all up will be 8km and take us around 2hours. This is a moderate walk along the foreshore trail with a steep section walking up Olivers Hill and a few steep staircases in the Sweetwater Creek Reserve.

**Agenda**

* I will meet you out the front of Waves on the Beach Restaurant at the end of Wells Street at 10am.
