This Timaru District Council reserve is a short distance from Pleasant Point and offers two short walks: Kowhai Track (45 minutes) and Cabbage Tree Track (20 min.)  We are planning to do both of them before returning home for lunch.  This will be a great opportunity to stretch legs that may not have been stretched for a while – as well as those that may have had some recent stretching!

The reserve is surrounded by pine plantation, but contains good examples of native bush and birdlife, and offers good views over the surrounding countryside.

There is no need to book in for this trip – just turn up at the Aorangi Stadium carpark beside Morgans Road in Timaru at 9:00 on Tuesday, and transport will be arranged from there.
