Wellington Parks and Nature

Wellington’s landscape features a mix of managed gardens and wild coastal terrain. The 25-hectare Botanic Garden offers hillside views and diverse plant collections, while the Waterfront provides access to the natural harbour. Modern recreation spaces like Waitangi Park contrast with the rugged south coast, where sites like Sinclair Head and Te Raekaihau showcase unique geological formations. From the sheltered sands of Scorching Bay to the wind-swept trails of the West Wind Recreation Area, the region offers varied environments for outdoor exploration.
