Kauri Point Centennial Park

Kauri Point Centennial Park (KPCP) features a large area of beautiful bush walks, leading down to the shore at Kendall Bay Beach while connecting to Chelsea Estate Heritage Park in the east. Featuring unique gumland ecosystems and a wide range of biodiversity from native orchids to native lizards and not to mention amazing views, KPCP is a gem that we are lucky to have in Kaipātiki. 

​

KPCP has a long history of care from volunteers who look after the reserve, maintaining tracks, servicing traplines, controlling invasive weeds and more. More hands are always needed to carry on and expand on this important work! If you are interested in joining us in caring for this wonderful reserve, email us at team@pfk.org.nz to be involved.
