Chatswood Reserve tracks open!
The Chatswood Reserve tracks are now complete and open!
The tracks have been upgraded to a standard to help prevent kauri dieback, including new bridges, boardwalks and box steps.
The route is now different. There is now a stand-alone connection between Fitzpatrick Place and Mappin Place, which includes a lookout.
The remainder of the tracks can be accessed from Portsea Place, Langstone Place, Blundell Place and Homewood Place, and connect through to Kauri Point Centennial Park and Chelsea Estate Heritage Park (the exit to the gravel pit carpark is closed while it is being upgraded).
These photos and map have been provided by the project manager.
