Kensington Ave to Marsden Ave, Mt Eden. This walkway looks a little boring but it’s actually an exciting entry across Balmoral streets into Centennial Park. It’s on my regular walking home route and has been recently upgraded to a wider and well lit walkway. It’s on the bike route between Mt Eden and Dominion Roads …

Ferryhill to Morvern, Mt Eden
Ferryhill Road to Morvern Road, Mt Eden. I was feeling a little like I hadn’t been out exploring enough after a few weeks of winter ills.

The very narrow bars at one end actively discourages bikes, push chairs or wheelchair users, hopefully …
Lovelock to Charlton, Mt Eden
This stunning sneaker winds its way between stately houses in the suburb of Mt Eden, Auckland. There’s no way to know how old this walkway is but from the wear on the steps I imagine it’s been there for a long time and has seen many feet traipse its steps. I only managed a picture …
