This small reserve is located on Ainsworth Road, off SH2, just north of Te Puna.
There are two picnic tables and a small pond, popular with the local waterfowl.
Beyond the locked gate a grassy access-way leads to a short bush walk (signposted). This track meanders along beside a small stream through regenerating coastal forest dominated by rewarewa and mamaku tree ferns. After crossing the stream it doubles back then climbs to a pleasant open area that leads back to the starting point.
