We missed the turn off the first time as I had forgotten the name of the area we were headed for. So, as you head out of Upper Hutt you are looking for the Tunnel Gully turn off which is on the right hand side.
We had accidentally chosen the weekend that a dog group descended on the park. Mister 5 was very happy - lots of people to talk to!
This was a really easy walk - flat almost the whole way. Beautiful though. Lots of really big trees - Rimu, Tawa, Kahikatea and Matai. Hopefully I'll be able to identify them soon.
We took the quick detour up to Mangaroa Tunnel. Very glad that someone had told me to bring a torch as it was really dark and long - 253 metres.
About 6 000 steps
