🌿 Chelsea Estate Heritage Park is a stunning 36.7-hectare park located in Birkenhead, Auckland's North Shore!

🌳 Wander through walking tracks surrounded by lush kanuka, manuka, kauri, and tanekaha trees – a nature lover's dream!

🐦 Perfect for bird watchers! Keep an eye out for black shags, pied shags, kōtare, and sometimes royal spoonbills.

🏛️ Steeped in European history and an important heritage site, it's listed as a Category I historic place by the NZ Historic Places Trust.

🚶‍♂️ Multiple walking tracks, including connections to Chatswood Reserve and Kauri Point Centennial Park for a longer adventure.

🍰 Home to the Chelsea Sugar Refinery and Café – a great place to relax after exploring.

🚗 Park on Colonial Road and walk in – accessible toilets inside the park.

🐶 Dogs on a leash are welcome, and parts of the park allow off-leash fun (check the DOC website for details).
