Description

The Waimairi Walkway is a flat walk in a riverside and rural landscape.

The walk begins at the entrance to the Groynes on Groynes drive and travels along the outside of the park beneath the new motorway before diverging off into the countryside.

Passing through Darroch Street Reserve, the walk meets the Otukaikino Track and a circuit back through to the Groynes can be made for a 5km walk.
