Are you ready to park-take in this year's Parks Week? 

Along with other councils across Australia and Aotearoa, we're celebrating parks between 2 and 10 March. 

Parks and open spaces are important places for communities to connect, relax, play, and recreate. Parks play a vital role in creating liveable cities and thriving communities. Upper Hutt has many parks and open spaces, some of these are also managed by Greater Wellington Regional Council.
