Western Springs Must Do's

Western Springs Lakeside Park

A large park right beside Auckland Zoo. The 1.75km Western Springs Path snakes the edges and there’s a picturesque lake in the middle. Duck chatter and gleeful screams emanate from the playground and ponds.

Fukuoka Garden

This traditional Japanese garden is both peaceful and pretty. Nestled in Western Springs Lakeside Park, enjoy a little capsule of faraway lands in the heart of Auckland.

Auckland Zoo

Full of delights, including elevated giraffe-viewing platforms and human-sized meerkat tunnels. Discover over 1400 animals, an observation area at the on-site Vet Hospital and a high canopy habitat with orangutans and siamangs. Stay tuned for the brand-new South East Asia swamp forest.

Auckland Zoo

MOTAT

Auckland’s Museum of Transport and Technology is one for petrol heads, tech enthusiasts, history buffs and future thinkers alike. Visit the original Pumphouse with puffing steam engines, service vehicles, the historic village, model railway and Explodomerumpus space. Then ride over to the Aviation Hall for free on the beautiful vintage tram.
