Walking Wellington. 23 walks of discovery in and around Wellington by Kathy Ombler

This lively new book starts with an introduction that puts Wellington's walking attractions in context - from the vibrancy of the central city to the quiet of a forest-filled valley. The author's extensive knowledge of ongoing conservation efforts in the region give added interest to the 23 recreational walks described. Each walk gives clear directions, plus details of relevant public transport, refreshment stops and other attractions along the way. Also included is a fascinating history of both Maori and European settlement of the area, and some of the unique flora and fauna to be found en route. The walks covered include historic city tours, outstanding wildlife sanctuaries, coastal wildernesses and some of Wellington's lesser-known scenic attractions. Ideal for the keen Wellingtonian walker, and visitors to the city eager to explore some of the region's finest natural landscapes, cityscapes and heritage features. This 2001 New Holland Paperback is in good condition. Signed by author.
