Avondale is not all suburbia you know!

The Avondale Rose Garden’s fragrant blooms and the picturesque Oakley Creek Walkway are my go-to spots.

For a deeper connection with nature, the Avondale Whau River Walk is a must, offering peaceful riverbank views and boardwalks.

Avondale’s serene beauty and tranquil tracks are waiting to be discovered, and I’m excited to share them with you!

You’ll find more of my walks in West Auckland here.
