This is a short walk to get a bit of a sweat up, while being relatively flat. The path around Tiakina / Sister Rene Shadbolt Park takes about 20-25 minutes to walk and includes a gravel section through regenerating bush.
After or before your walk there is a half court basketball court and large skate park you can enjoy with the kids. If there isn't rugby being played you can have a kick around on the fields or watch the local club training.
There is heaps of parking off Portage Road and modern public toilets. There is also an entry level playground with swings and a climbing frame for the younger kids.
