Belmont Regional Park

It was a great hike going through both grasslands and forests. The path leading upto the korokoro dam was almost magical! Definitely recommend for a bright sunny day hike.

A beautiful park with a lot of long trails, mountains, forests, waterfalls etc. Bring enough time and water, you can't buy anything there, I also haven't seen a toilet or something.I was there when it was very cloudy, so I couldn't take very nice pictures of the landscape. Make sure the weather is good tho.

What a beautiful place to camp, 8 dollars a night per adult and 4 dollars per child, cash only, fill out the envelope and put monies into the 2 iron maidens provided. has excellent toilet facilities for all abilities. Drinking water tap on site. The walks are stunning, the walk to the waterfall expect wet feet. There are also streams of water where one can cool down in. No rubbish bins on site, please take home

What a awsome place ...I was just waiting for a Tiger or a Velociraptor or a T-rex to come out of the bush....really made me feel like I was ain a Jarrasic world. Definitely going to do the walk again.

Belmont Regional ParkAnother excellent easy walk park in the Hutt Valley Western Hills. Open daily from 5am to 10pm - these hours are in effect from 1 Oct 2020 until late Apr 21.The breathtaking views and bush-clad valleys of Belmont Regional Park make it a favourite open space for picnics, walking, running, mountain biking and horse riding.Located in the hill between Porirua and the Hutt Valley, the park features the historic Korokoro Dam, Pareaho Pa, World War II ammunition stores and the original main coach road from Wellington. Climb to the trig, enjoy sweeping views over Porirua Harbour, the Lower Hutt and the remnants of ancient boulder block fields. Highly recommended.

We had a great walk from the Cornish Street entrance up to the Dam and then did a loop and walked back. The track is well sign posted, easy to manage for young ones with plenty of opportunities to spot birds and eels along the way.

A magnificent trip from Wellington, the road up there is so beautiful too. Just be careful the location pin is not where the waterfall is, we spent quite sometime to find it. For that drive to Korokoro dam.

Lots of dead sheep everywhere, government needs to step in and get some native bush in here thanks at least on the Porirua side of the park. But having the hills and space to run in close to home is good.

Nice track! Beautiful and relaxing walk in the woods and beside the stream. Be mindful that you need to pass through the stream several times, not so difficult, but still challenging if you're with kids.
