39. Belmont Park - Korokoro Stream Walk

February 21

This track starts at Cornish Street in Petone. I liked the look of this one because it was a reasonable length but an easy grade (my legs were sore from the gym).

The main part of the track is following the stream through an open valley. It was quite narrow in places. Still looked lovely and green despite the dry summer and there were lots of wildflowers.

About 45 minutes in you reach the main forest area of Belmont Park. The track was a bit wet in places so probably gets quite muddy in winter. It was really peaceful and there were a few places along the stream where you could have stopped to sit or have a splash in the water.

The walk finishes at the Korokoro Dam. We sat for a while and just watched the water and some ducks before heading back.

14 000 steps
