Great place to start when exploring the Waitakere ranges. Amazing views plus learn about the natural flora and fauna. Fabulous walk up to here starting in Tirirangi: the super fit can walk from home.

Great cafe with good coffee, great food and a family-friendly sunny courtyard. There's a lovely walk nearby I can tell you about so you can walk off the ginger loaf.

Mixed reviews in terms of the restaurant food but the view back to the city can't be beaten. On the road to or from Piha - stop for a snack, a coffee or a wine.

Arts & Culture
Historic Lopdell house has just been beautifully renovated. Don't miss the open rooftop harbour views. You can almost see my house from here! The impressive new regional art gallery is next door.
