discover or just have a go at while you meet people and make
new friends.
Our classes are led by knowledgeable and experienced

coordinated by wonderful community volunteers.

these are held at The Pioneer Women's and Ellen Melville Hall,

Heritage Walk SeriesAuckland Domain Auckland Domain is located on one of Auckland's first volcanoes and its vantage point
overlooking the harbour has made it a focal point for both Maori and European settlers.
Auckland Domain – Architecture Auckland Domain walk
Learn about the architectural history of this glorious park, richly endowed with sculptures and
heritage buildings.
Campus Walk Inaugurated in 1883, the University of Auckland grew around the grounds of Old Government
House. Over time, many of the original buildings in the vicinity have been added. Today the
University sprawls over several blocks from its prominent location above the city.
Grafton Perhaps best known for its bridge, the suburb of Grafton extends from Symonds Street to
the Domain and out towards Mt Eden. This walk takes in one of Auckland's most significant
cemeteries and provides background on heritage buildings, both residential and public.
Epsom – In the Zone Discover a hidden corner of Auckland nestled on the slopes of Mt Eden, above Newmarket. Iconic
homesteads feature lovely gardens nurtured from harsh terrain. Auckland Grammar School
exerts its influence on local real estate as Aucklanders vie to be in this historic Grammar zone.
Self-guided recorded Heritage Walks to be available for these walks. In some cases,
as noted, two guided walks have been combined into one self-guided walk.
Parnell Trust offers a unique programme of heritage walks around the historic central
Auckland suburbs of Parnell, Grafton, Newmarket and Epsom.
A schedule of guided walks is available from September to April, with many happening
during Auckland's Heritage Festival. Our walks are led by knowledgeable guides who provide
interesting commentary and anecdotes on local heritage treasures and the people that shaped
these central Auckland suburbs. See http://www.parnell.org.nz/Parnell-Trust-Heritage-Walks-
Auckland.htm for a current schedule of walks and pricing.
To enable you to take a heritage walk at a time to suit you, Parnell Trust will launch
self-guided heritage walks in early 2013. These are being developed from our guided walk
series with generous support from ASB Community Trust and our walk leaders. The self-
guided walks will provide a rich heritage experience combining downloadable recordings of
the walks supported by mobile Apps for sound files, maps and photos, together with extensive
links to additional material.
For further details see www.parnell.org.nz/Parnell-Trust-Heritage-Walks.htm

Guided Heritage Walks can be booked for private groups at any time of the year,
depending on availability of our guides. Please contact us at 09 555 5164 for enquiries.
