Our Stories: Earthquake Stories Walk is a free self-guided audio walk at 299 Durham St N, Christchurch CBD, rated 4.7 from 7 Google reviews. Reviewers describe it as moving, with accounts from people who were there when the earthquakes struck.
The website describes free audio walks told by the people who were there, and it asks visitors to bring headphones. The Earthquake Memory Walk runs for about 30 minutes over 1.6 km and starts outside Quake City, drawing on more than 30 voices from the CEISMIC archive. Other walks include a 19-stop Lyttelton route of 3.5 km that starts at the Information Centre, and a nine-stop walk across the city. The project is a registered charity that records and maps local stories and gives them back to the public for free.
For a free walk through the city's earthquake stories, this project is worth a visit in the central city.
