Background

Auckland City has been built around and among a field of extinct volcanoes, including 14 volcanic cones - many of which are now parks, enjoyed by Aucklanders and visitors as for their wide open spaces and superb views.

The parks listed are some of more than 800 cared for by Auckland City Council for residents and visitors to Auckland City.

Environmental care code

Protect plants and animals	Treat the trees, birds and flower beds with care and respect. They are there for all to enjoy and are easily damaged.
Remove rubbish	Litter is unattractive, harmful to wildlife and can increase vermin and disease. Carry out what you can or dispose of it in the bins provided.
Consider others	People visit the park for many reasons. Be considerate of other visitors who also have a right to enjoy the natural environment.
Respect our cultural heritage	Many places have a spiritual and historical significance. Treat these places with consideration and respect.
Enjoy your visit	Enjoy your outdoor experience. Take a last look before leaving an area; will the next visitor know that you have been there?
*Toitu te whenua - Leave the land undisturbed.*
