Geocache Description:

One of a series of small caches in and around Te Aroha.

Access to wetlands is from Spur St (by the sports clubrooms at Boyd Park), from the end of Ritchie St, from Terminus St (across the historic railway bridge), or across the boardwalk from Kenwyn Reserve (off Kenrick St S37º32.842’ E175º42.328’). From where you pass the wooden walk way. Continue until you reach the reserve. A few minutes away from the parking space.
The cache is a small dark brown Systema container.

Contains: Log book, pencil & sharpener, plus the usual Knick-knacks.

The Howarth Memorial Wetland walk is a one hour loop walk through a lovely wildlife refuge. This walk is mostly flat, and accessible from several areas making it ideal for morning or evening walks. It is a pleasant walk for all ages and fitness levels. The track includes a board-walk leading to a bird watching hut with great views of the wetland.

There are plenty of walks in and around Te Aroha, if you need a map showing walks and tracks go see the Motelliers at Te Aroha Motel, they are happy to give you one.
