Get ready to explore our trail!

Peep, peep people! I’m Huanui, your friendly ‘fan-trail’ guide and local feathered resident.

I’m the mascot of the Avon-Ōtākaro Network, which instigated the Green Spine (and reimagined the river corridor) you experience today. Follow me through an amazing array of community spaces, places of interest and ecological projects. I’ll share stories about how the red zone is transforming into the #greenspine.

Let’s go!

Any travelling instructions follow a west to east  / city to sea direction, but explore the trail any way you choose.

[Note: this website is still being developed and improved. Visit us again, to see additions and learn more about the Green Spine.]
