Howarth Memorial Wetland Loop Walk
- Location
- Access from Spur St or via footbridge at end of Lawrence Ave or by boardwalk at Kenwyn Reserve on Kenrick St.
- Description
- One-hour loop walk around wetland flora and fauna. A pleasant walk for all ages and fitness levels.This attractive wetland wildlife refuge was created by local members of the Fish and Game Association from a swamp formerly used as a rubbish dump. One successful result has been the establishment of a native grey teal population. The track meanders around a pond, with boardwalks giving access to hides and great places to view grey teal, kingfisher, pied stilt, white-faced heron, pukeko and black shag.
