A riverside spot at the corner of Richardson Terrace and Ferry Road in Woolston, Christchurch, where a circular walk of about one hour starts. The walk follows both sides of the Ōpāwaho Heathcote River, and can be joined at any point. Numbered stops explain the history of the area, and each has a marker with a QR code. The Christchurch Quay was the first wharf built along the river, in 1851. Other stops include Radley Bridge, Aikman's Wharf, Union Wharf, the Woolston Cut and Barrage, Radley Park and the Laura Kent Reserve. The walk was prepared by a volunteer workgroup, which meets on the first Saturday of each month from 9am to 11am.
Customers describe it as a great place to rest by the river, and a peaceful area to watch the ducks and enjoy the scenery. One visitor says it is simple but nice, and could do with some work. Woolston Borough Monument, at the same spot, has fewer reviews and a lower rating.
