Harbourview Walkway

Wide open spaces, panoramic views and bracing sea air makes this a great place to escape to.

The Harbourview walkway wends its way past two historic homes, over several small creeks, and leads you down and around some specially created water features.  There are boardwalks and a picnic platform out over the water at  Harbourview Reserve.

Special inhabitants of Harbourview include the rare and shy fernbird, kokopu (a native fish found in the streams) and godwits - world travelling birds who visit the shell banks off the peninsula.

As you wander, take in the panoramic views; the harbour, the city scape in the distance and, beyond, Auckland's icon, Rangitoto Island.

Distance: 1530m

How to get there

Head to Te Atatu Peninsula.  Take Harbourview Road or Waikura Dr, Riverstone Rd, Longbush Rd, Provence Esplanade, Danica Esplanade or turn off Te Atatu Rd just past the roundabout.
