Western Springs Lakeside Park

Our go to place for evening walk with our bubba. He loves watching the nature and all the varieties of birds there. There is a kids playground which is usually packed on a sunny afternoon You can buy your coffee from athe Watering Hole cafe which is conveniently located right next to the playground

What a beautiful and peaceful place to enjoy by yourself and family. I happened to go to this park because there was a festival Pasifica Festival going on, but I was so impressed by the rolling hills and picaresque lakeside views. I think you would enjoy it too. It is also very easy to get there by public transit on one of the city’s doubledecker buses

Really lovely park with big ponds full of eels and waterfowl. Sadly quite a number of dead eels, and many alive eels appeared to have some Fingal or bacterial infections.

A lovely park with pond, close to Motat, Auckland Zoo, and the Western Springs Stadium. Just make sure that you aren't wandering around after sunset; as there are plenty of dodgy people lurking around once it gets dark. You can find plenty of swans, ducks and pokeko. You will also find some chickens and a few geese. Parking is very challenging during the day, especially on a good sunny day.

#public free park#nlots of lovely ducksells and swans. You can walk around the whole lakejust half of the hour.
