A real hidden gem in the city ! Beautiful nature reserve with stunning walking trails and amazing views around the lake and Styx river. Nice variety of flora and fauna, perfect for bird watching or just casual walk to enjoy wildlife, birds, butterflies in beautiful surroundings. The best thing is that it’s relatively quiet and. It crowded, so one can enjoy a walk in nature with many people and get some peace of mind. There are many quiet spots and benches to rest and enjoy the view. Dogs are only allowed in designated area which is how all the reserves should be and bikes are not permitted. On the entrance there is a small car park for max. 10 cars.
This is such a nice walk,very tranquil with lots to look at.Its quite sheltered in places so nice on a sunny day to have some cover.Bus also goes so close it's only a 3 minute walk
A pleasant walk with lots of native bird life and greenery. Although not particularly long, it's nice for a short stroll or even a picnic as there are picnic benches available by the pond. Dogs are allowed on leashes, and there is a large dog park within the reserve where they are allowed off leash. Close to the city and plenty of parking.
This beautiful Reserve, has it all! Enjoy the stream and lake, bird watching or a picnic. Great for families, and there is even a dog park from the Hussey road entrance. There are enough trails to make a great run loop to!
A peaceful walk in nature near the water on the edge of Christchurch City. There are a couple of car parks off Styx Mill Road which had space when I visited on a weekday afternoon. The paths are raised, flat mainly with small gravel but which are accessible. Not many muddy patches in autumn. There are picnic tables and benches along the paths and toilets nearby in the dog park. There are signposts which tell you which trail you are on but the signage could be improved with maps at junctions, lose one star for this. Contemplation point sounds interesting but we didn't take that path. Good place to watch native birds, there were plenty of fantails and pukekos. A pleasant place to come for a walk near nature.
