Howarth Memorial Wetland

Discovered a new place to go for a walk today, and a good one too. The Howarth Memorial Wetland in Te Aroha. The place is brilliant. The sort of place that a seven year old dreams about. There is of course wetland (both bog and river, with ponds), and an incredibly eclectic mix of trees. Not the usual medley of natives, but a mix of indigenous trees, fruit trees and everything else...

The walk will take around 40 minutes (assuming you don't also go for a swim), and can be accessed from Spur street, or alternatively the end of Lawrence Street (just cross the bridge in that case).

Again, with the photos:
