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.

What does ANZAC day mean to you?
ANZAC Day is a time to reflect, remember, and honour those who served.
It’s also a powerful reminder of the impact of war and the courage of those who stood for something greater than themselves.
We're interested to hear what ANZAC Day means to you and your whānau, and about any special traditions you follow each year.
Perhaps you have a loved one who served? If you feel comfortable, we’d love for you to share their story here with us.


Lost Dog
On Tuesday night about 10pm our old debilitated deaf and blind dog managed to wander out of our house in Puawai Place Onepoto Basin, Northcote, down the drive and disappeared. She normally can't walk far and bangs into things. We realised quite quickly and hunted high and low until 1am in the morning. She has been a beautiful dog and it's heartbreaking for her to end like this. Not knowing what might have happened to her is terrible. She is the dog in this photo from.a few years ago. Please contact me if you know anything at all. Sue 0272586004
