Titoki Reserve is a bush reserve on Cashmere Drive, Fitzherbert, Palmerston North 4410, rated 5.0 from 5 Google reviews. It is part of the city's walkway system and the Green Corridors network. Reviewers describe a walk that feels like a jungle, with steep climbs and a good number of steps.
A bush track with steps and climbs is judged on its footing, its handrails and how steep the route is. Steep bush tracks can be damp and slippery, so sturdy shoes and a steady pace matter more than the length of the walk. Dogs and young children tire quickly on long stretches of steps, so it helps to plan a rest point. Regulars often walk at the same time each week and learn where the light falls best along the track.
For a bush walk with steps and a good climb near Fitzherbert, Titoki Reserve is worth a visit.
