Ferry Road Track – East Harbour Regional Park

Location

Williams Park, Ferry Road

Description

This walk offers views of Wellington Harbour and Eastbourne. The entrance passes through a plantation of Pinus Muricata (Bishop.s Pine) before climbing into native Beech forest. A challenging walk.

The Days Bay tracks climb through mature beech and rata forest, giving spectacular harbour views. At different times of the year you may see native orchids flowering. From the main ridge a range of tracks lead down to other eastern bays and over to the Wainuiomata valley.

East Harbour Regional Park is a contrast of native forest and rocky coastline, providing a magnificent backdrop to Wellington Harbour.
