Reviews

A good place to start your visit the Waitakere region. The staff are very friendly. They can provide you with all the information to plan and book your visit. There is awesome view from the centre, and a great place to relax before continuing your journey. Also don't forget there is exhibits of native fish, insects and local art.

Beautiful views around the visitor center and some really cool souvenirs. The views are worth the trip and you can see some of the silver leaf ferns that are native to New Zealand.
There are some very interesting statues at the visitor center to be aware of.

The staff was helpful in figuring which part of the Hillary Track to take for our Sunday bush walk. There are a number of tracks which wind through the Waitakeres depending on your preferences. You can bring your dog for an on lead walk. 

Also features an educational center for the kids and a gift shop as well. For those nut looking for a walk there is a platform with a great view.

An amazing place for trampers, young families, tourists etc. The information centre is excellent, the views are amazing and the walks here are varied. Some only an hour others link to longer walks and can stretch over days. Beautiful ice creams from a vendor outside.
