AUT Offgrid Presents: Wenderholm Regional Park! This day trip takes us to the outskirts of Auckland, just north of Silverdale, where the native wildlife meets the coast.We'll be doing the Wenderholm Perimeter Loop walk, which is 4.6km long and usually takes about 2.5 hours. After that, we'll have lunch together and have some fun playing games on the beach. We'll also check out Couldrey House, and if we're up for it, do a short walk to the Couldrey House Lookout too. It's going to be a great day, so bring your sense of adventure!
