"A very nice walk but the signage could be improved, it is confusing at times. The maps at the information points are good (take a photo of them, makes life easier) but the online maps are poor. Usual confusion between DOC (no dogs) and DCC (dogs on a leash). Best to ignore DOC who seem to have a pathological dislike of dogs."
"We enjoyed our walk around the Lagoon. Sign for the path a little confusing in the village as it was a different name. Mostly the walk is easy though at one side of the Lagoon there are some steepish parts to the path for people who are less mobile or steady on their feet. Lovely to see the bird life."
"Mint easy walk with some native bush & native bird life, takes about 45mins to do a loop, try time it for when the tide is right in for the best views, still great anytime though"
"Amazing walk. It takes less than an hour and the views are just amazing ! What else can I say"
"Conservationists have done a fabulous job restoring this natural habitat, breathing life into what was derelict neglected scrub from early settlers mismanagement of land with no understanding of natural equilibrium or sustainability...Delightful walk. Saw 20 Pukeko which is a record for me and testament to the restoration project."
