Leigh Scenic Reserve trackwork gets underway
Fences have now gone up at Leigh Scenic Reserve, Bayview, in preparation for stage 1 of the work to upgrade the tracks to help prevent kauri dieback disease. There will also be 3 shoe-cleaning stations installed.
The project has been split into 5 stages, with stages 1-3 at Leigh Scenic Reserve and stages 4-5 at the Glenfield Coastal Walkway between Lynn Reserve and Manuka Reserve.
During the project, there will be two helicopter drops, during which the Lynn Reserve playground will be temporarily closed.
Below are the dates for the 5 stages of work, however there could be some overlap, particularly between stages 2 and 3:
Stage One: G7, G8, G9, G10 (from 11.10.21 – 04.12.21)
Stage Two: G11, G12, G13 (from 06.12.21 – 19.02.22)
Stage Three: G12, G13 (from 31.01.22 – 19.02.22)

Stage Five: E4 (from 18.04.22 – 01.05.22)
Work hours: 7:30am – 6:00pm, Monday – Saturday. No work on Sundays or public holidays.

Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk now open!
NEWSFLASH: The wait is over and the Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk is NOW OPEN to the public! Check it out!
And please join us for our official opening/celebration in a couple of weeks!
➡️ When: 12pm Sunday 28 April
➡️ Where: Kauri Glen Road entrance to Kauri Glen Reserve
➡️ Facebook event: www.facebook.com...
Free BBQ! Walk the new track!
This is a new step-free route between Kauri Glen Road and Tui Glen Road, with a refurbished track (including steps) to Raymond Terrace. The new bridge is around 6 storeys high with a very impressive view of the forest tree tops.
The new tracks, bridge and boardwalk have been built to a standard to help prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease, which is especially important in this park.
*** Please always clean your shoes, bikes, prams and wheelchairs at the stations. ***
Note: We made the decision to allow public access earlier than expected to prevent further damage to the forest by those who were throwing the fences into the trees 🙁
