The tracks have been simplified and re-routed away from kauri trees. They are now smooth and step-free, although wheelchair users may need some assistance in places.
New entrance signage and directional signage within the park will be installed in the coming months.
Please stay on the tracks and use the new shoe-cleaning stations to help prevent kauri dieback entering the park. Bikes are able to use the new tracks (with caution around pedestrians), however the wheel-cleaning stations are still to come.
The Kaipatiki Local Board and Kaipātiki Project will be holding an official open day in the coming weeks, and there are a few feeder tracks that will be upgraded in the next stage of work, however the bulk of the tracks are now finished, so go check them out!
- Funded through the Natural Environment Targeted Rate and the Kaipātiki Local Board asset renewal work programme.

A guitalele is tuned to ADGCEa in the same intervals as a guitar but up a fourth as if you were to capo the guitar on the fifth fret. The top four strings of the guitalele are tuned the same as a ukulele, GCEA, except the ukulele's G string is tuned up an octave, just two … View moreWhat is a guitalele?
A guitalele is tuned to ADGCEa in the same intervals as a guitar but up a fourth as if you were to capo the guitar on the fifth fret. The top four strings of the guitalele are tuned the same as a ukulele, GCEA, except the ukulele's G string is tuned up an octave, just two steps down from the high A string.

Bought for Xmas in 2019 from MusicWorks with 5 year warranty, and practiced for a short time. It's then well kept in the bag in a dry place with desiccant.
Length/Width/Depth: 70cm/23cm/7cm
