Old Shoreline Walk

Those with a penchant for history and limited time will love this 90-minute stroll through the city streets. The walk starts in Oriental Bay and follows the original shoreline ending at the foot of Lambton Quay. The trail takes in a number of much loved buildings including the St James Theatre and St Mary of the Angels church. Pick up a detailed brochure at the Visitor Information Centre. When the mood takes, you eat at one of the numerous cafes dotted along the route and soak up the downtown atmosphere.
