Marsden Valley Reserve
- Location
- The walk starts from the small car park beside the Stoke War Memorial, just a few hundred metres past the cemetery entrance on Marsden Valley Road
- Description
The track starts at the right of the war memorial and heads up into the native plantings – a project involving almost all the schools in Nelson and Richmond. The track splits and goes up to the most recent plantings. At this point it is a no exit route, but walk up nearer the top and admire the views. Return to the track by the same route. Continuing, follow it on down until you come to another fork, take the left hand track and down to a small roadside reserve carpark. Turn right and walk back down the road to the carpark.
