About this place
Take a short stroll to a picnic spot in this reserve renowned for its unique and rare and endangered flora.
The route
From the carpark a short track heads down to a delightful bridge across the Hautapu River. From here a short walk takes you to a large clearing suitable for picnicking. A small stretch of boardwalk crosses an area that can be wet and swampy during winter.
