About the path
This loop path through West Harbour will appeal to the whole family.
Start your adventure in Mānutewhau / Manutewhau Reserve on Moire Road, or from any of the local connecting streets along the route. The reserve playground has lots of fun equipment and a basketball half-court for children to develop their locomotor skills, balance and upper body strength. There is plenty of natural shade and seating.
Wind your way through the native bush - some of the lushest remaining in the Waitakere urban area.
The path emerges onto Oreil Avenue. Cross the road, then continue through Rengarenga / St Margarets Park, where you'll find another small children's playground.
Cross Fitzherbert Avenue and follow the path through Flaunty Place and Flaunty Reserve. Take a short walk to the top of the hill to enjoy the stunning views of the Waitematā Harbour, while children race each other on the side-by-side slides.
From here, follow the accessway path which connects Sumich Place and Kayle Glen, through to Moire Road.
Head back to the Mānutewhau / Manutewhau Reserve starting point, or across the road to nearby Moire Park.
