Did You Know These Wonders of the Eight Wellington Walkways?

1. Northern Walkway
The name Tinakori is a misspelling of 'Tina Kahore' meaning 'without dinner'. This name was given during the construction of Tinakori Road, as road makers worked all day without stopping for lunch.

2. City to Sea Walkway
Berhampore Nursery is the source of the Council's plant requirements throughout the city. Over 600,000 annuals for bedding, 70,000 natives, 250 street trees and 50,000 general trees and shrubs for road reserves and roundabouts are grown each year.

3. Eastern Walkway
Pencarrow Lighthouse was the first permanent lighthouse to be built in New Zealand and was run by New Zealand's only woman lighthouse-keeper, Mrs Bennett.

4. Skyline Walkway
Otari-Wilton’s Bush is the only botanic garden in NZ devoted to native plants. It’s 100 hectares.

5. Southern Walkway
In the late 19th century Island Bay was outside the city of Wellington and had about a dozen households. With the completion of the Wellington railway in 1886 the city was able to expand.

6. Explore the Waterfront
The Wellington Rowing Club Building was erected in 1894 as a base for the Wellington Naval Artillery Volunteers, formed in 1879 after a ‘Russian Scare’. The building housed two naval cutters for harbour defence and the tower was built to provide a lookout.

7. Explore Parliament and Thorndon
The Railway Station was built over three years from 1934-1937. The huge foyer inside the main entrance was inspired by the Pennsylvania Station in New York.
