What to expect
An excursion to Shakespear Regional Park from Auckland CBD commences with an approximate 50-minute drive. Upon arrival, the planned activity involves a 40-minute walk along a designated trail leading to a key lookout point, notably traversing sections of active sheep farmland en route. This walk culminates in reaching a vantage point offering exceptional panoramic views over the surrounding harbour and extending towards the distant Auckland city skyline, providing a significant scenic reward for the moderate physical exertion.
Long Bay
A trip is planned to Long Bay Regional Park, home to one of Auckland's longest beaches. You can enjoy the beach views and also take a walk on the popular Long Bay coastal trail for more scenery.
Browns Bay
Following the completion of the extended walk, a refreshment break is scheduled. This interlude will take place at a highly-regarded café located in the Browns Bay town centre.
Sylvan Park
Sylvan Park is a popular lakeside reserve located in Milford on Auckland's North Shore, situated right beside the freshwater Lake Pupuke. It features wide grassy areas ideal for picnics and recreation, a children's playground, and direct access to the lake, making it a hub for water activities like kayaking, paddleboarding, and sailing.
Takapuna is a vibrant coastal suburb located on Auckland's North Shore. It's renowned for its popular white-sand beach, offering safe swimming and stunning views of Rangitoto Island.
