Eskdale Reserve Network tracks now open!
The new tracks at Eskdale Reserve Network are now open, including the new entrance on Glenfield Road near the roundabout!
The tracks have been simplified and re-routed away from kauri trees. They are now smooth and step-free, although wheelchair users may need some assistance in places.
New entrance signage and directional signage within the park will be installed in the coming months.
Please stay on the tracks and use the new shoe-cleaning stations to help prevent kauri dieback entering the park. Bikes are able to use the new tracks (with caution around pedestrians), however the wheel-cleaning stations are still to come.
The Kaipatiki Local Board and Kaipātiki Project will be holding an official open day in the coming weeks, and there are a few feeder tracks that will be upgraded in the next stage of work, however the bulk of the tracks are now finished, so go check them out!
- Funded through the Natural Environment Targeted Rate and the Kaipātiki Local Board asset renewal work programme.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
