North Shore Tramping Club
Location: Takapuna - Devonport loop
This is an easy/medium urban walking route, on beach, clifftop, parks and streets.
Starting from The Strand in Takapuna, (where the bus parks, opposite Cafe Presso). We will head along Takapuna Beach to Clifton Road. From here, we will head up to Takapuna Grammar and make our way along the top of the clifftop fields, and connect down to Narrowneck Beach. We will pass through Cheltenham to North Head. Beautiful views from the top overlooking the city and East Auckland. We will walk into Devonport Village and stop for a coffee before heading up Mount Victoria. Again amazing views, but seeing Auckland from a different angle from the city out to Waitakeres. We will then make our way along a bush trail and link up with the Bayswater boardwalk, with views to the harbour bridge. From here we will make our way back along Hauraki Corner and Takapuna beach to the starting point. We will stop for lunch somewhere along the way. This is a good trip for new members.
Total distance 18.5km
