Enjoy a relaxing summers day out exploring 12 beautiful gardens on the stunning Kāpiti Coast.
The 2024 line-up features a selection of relatively new gardens that demonstrate considered landscape design within smaller spaces, alongside several established gardens. And, back by popular demand is last year’s showstopper, the watery wonderland of Garden 10.
A special bonus addition to the trail this year - your ticket also gets you entry on the day to Ngā Manu Nature Reserve. A natural 14-hectare reserve, it preserves one of the largest remnants of coastal lowland swamp forest on the Kāpiti Coast. Learn first-hand about their restoration journey to preserve indigenous flora, including New Zealand’s native mistletoe.
This year’s trail is sure to delight garden lovers of all ages, and provide plenty of ideas and inspiration to take home.
Tickets are $30 per person for one day, or $45 per person for two days, with children under 15 years free when accompanied by an adult.
As a Waikanae Lions community fundraiser, proceeds go towards supporting Ronald McDonald House and the Shed Project Kāpiti.
