Whau Valley Dam reopens for visitors

The Team from Whangarei District Council

We've re-opened Whau Valley Dam for visitors, but fenced off an area of unstable ground. The carpark and access was closed earlier this year while assessments were carried out, and the carpark area has been deemed to be safe.

The Whau Valley Dam Track, which is accessed via the Dam car park, remains closed due to a slip - please stay clear of the fenced areas for now. The concrete path along the crest of the dam remains open.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
