Ambury Park

A spacious and varied park with lots to do located 15K's from Auckland central in Mangere on the shore of the Manukau Harbour.  It is a working farm and there are various tame farm animals which you can interact with for free such as Rabbits, sheep, chickens, horses, pigs, goats and cows.  The shore is a mecca for birdwatchers and has a nice bird watching platform with information available.  I recommend a walk along the quaint volcanic shoreline where there are informative signs detailing the geographical history of the area and how it was formed from a nearby but extinct volcano.  Also a nice place for a BBQ or picnic.
