Advertised as an hour walk I managed it with not too much trouble in thirty minutes but must admit, didn’t stop and appreciate the views too much as I have done it many times before. It is a ramble through a lovely wildlife reserve- positioned around a very small man made lake. Oak trees edge some parts of the track.

The car park is situated right beside Kenwyn Rest home, on the Hamilton side of Te Aroha. One of the access leads off from here, but there are other easily accessed tracks around the whole loop which makes it an easy track for children.

The song of cicadas and the chattering of the ducks accompanied me on this very pleasant, easy walk.
