TE ATATU PENINSULA CHARACTER ART TRAIL - Park at the People’s Park car park (or outside if the gate is still shut) and walk up the footpath between the water and the horses. Eventually you get to a pylon next to the motorway and you can’t go any further, with the bush/woods/scrub on your left. There are a few tracks that take you in to the woods, all of them going down the hill to the foreshore. It’s where the old brick words used to be, and there are heaps of old bricks lying about.
BE CAREFUL - Some of the tracks downhill are steeper than others and won't be pram/stroller friendly.

SPOONVILLE - check out Spoonville on Staffson Lane, Te Atatu Peninsula. Decorate your own spoon and join the community of over 800!

FAIRY TALE LAND - There is a fairy mailbox for your fairy tales on Montmere Ave, Te Atatu Peninsula. Write your own story and it may be posted to FB! Or create your own fairy design.
