Remuera and Hobson Bay Walkway Circuit

60-90 Minutes • Easy with steep paths • I really enjoy the diversity of Auckland at large and it is also a pleasure to find a walk that contains diversity within a small area.

This walk in Auckland, takes us from the ridge of Remuera Village, down to the edge of Hobson Bay walkway, onto a boardwalk amongst the mangroves via reserves and the Remuera mansions. You really get to know a city when you walk – we miss so much when we travel by car. This walk reveals some hidden Auckland gems.

The Hobbiton Movie Set Day Tour - From Auckland

Waiata Reserve is tucked in between Victoria Avenue and Orakei Road – a beautiful large space – this is a dog friendly walk with an off-leash area.

Cafe Greenfingers at Palmers Garden Centre on Shore Road is a great little cafe – the coffee is very good and so is the food.

This walk is one to do if fitness is a criteria – there is a decent uphill. It can also be done in all weathers as all the paths are paved.

Could you please tell me how to get to Remurea and Hobson Bay Walkway Circut or supply a map showing access?

Hello Pamela,
Apologies for my slow response, I had a busy weekend.
I am sorry as much as would love to, I don’t give away all my walks for free (hopefully one day I will find an advertising sponsor who will cover my costs).
~~You can purchase my map and detailed route from the shopping cart at this link http://walksinauckland.com/store/walks-in-auckland-central/~~

(we give away our maps now)

Best wishes,

This project began in 2011. My friend Grace was the walk creator – with her knowledge of Auckland, she could “see” circular routes, and then it was up to me to map out, photograph, research and document the routes. At first, I relied upon my voice recorder and Google maps but then with the advancement of technology, the smart phone became a best friend and I was able to track our route. The best fun was when we were both pleasantly surprised by what there was to see. Beautiful wetlands, views and bush kept us inspired to explore more.
