What's the best walk or hike where you live?
Stuff Travel has released its top five hikes in the Northland region out of more than 100 to choose from.
The array of walks, which vary in length and terrain difficulty, take you through unspoiled beaches, and rich native forests.
In the article linked below, Lorna Thornber names Te Paki Coastal Trail, Mt Manaia Track, Cape Brett Track, and Te Whara Track as the places to visit.
What are your top walks and hikes? Let us know below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comment featured in the Whangārei Leader.

Please meet Alyce Read of Nelson, who uses her houseplant collection to connect with others and help them overcome mental health challenges. "You wouldn’t take a plant and put it in a dark corner and fail to water it and expect it to thrive. So we should look at ourselves that way," she says. "If we are not thriving in the way that we would wish, it might not be any fault of ours, it might be the conditions that we are under."
All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ to paying it forward in line at a cafe - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, build a free community library for your street, buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re spreading kindness this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

The project involves a new 1500 square metre building, housing outpatients, primary health services run by Ngāti Hine Health Trust, renal services, oncology and haematology.
But costs for the project have doubled since 2018, mostly due to existing buildings not being fit-for-purpose.
Ardern said the redevelopment was essential to deliver services closer to where people live, including to help address inequities in Māori health. What do you think?

Check out what Head of Memberships at Diversity Works NZ, Ola Ioane has to say about his experience with Kiwi Can!
"I have a deeply personal connection to Graeme Dingle Foundation as I was blessed to be a child in your youth development programmes many years ago. For this, I extend a massive fa’afetai lava (thank you!). Will always be super grateful for the learning and development from your programme. I was part of Kiwi Can through Koru School. My Kiwi Can Leader was an awesome human named Ina (I think that’s his name). Funny – I don’t remember much about primary school but I definitely remember our Kiwi Can sessions."
