Nice little circuit - this is the first one we found. Quick hunt in the bushes. Found during the Dunedin Mega Tour by Tiz13 and Snips and Co
Starting our walk in these wetlands. Circled around for a bit then reading a previous log lots of forks, keep looking was very helpful. TFTC
Nice place! I wish I could explore it further. Perhaps next time. Thanks for the cache!

After we had been in the car most of the day taking friends from a cruise ship on a drive to Tekapo and back, we were ready for a walk and gentle walk was preferred. We spotted one cache along here was probably AWOL but 2 were fine. Quick find here and on we go, watching the rowers on the water.Thanks.
Cache 1624 I came to this lovely little nature reserve/walkway to sign the resident challenge cache but I couldnt pass up the opportunity to get another smiley or 2 on the way past T4TC
On the journey south, we completed this multi. The nature reserve is a beautiful oasis. Thank you for caring and maintaining the caches.
Tricky at first, but clear one spotted, slightly further left than expected! Good spot!
We wondered why so many people were here today, not knowing that it was a public holiday for South Canterbury. Managed to find, sign, and get nonchalantly back on track without being spotted.
I did spend quite some time searching for this one and was about to give up when I spotted it.
A great hide, Tftc

Out for some respite today biking the track. Found by my sister - I headed off in the wrong direction again...
Explored this walk today as the road was closed from extensive rain. Was an easy find. Lovely spot, tftc
Have ended a memorable morning along the wetlands walkways, picking up the caches along the way. Found every single one (thank you cache owners), except for one on the beach at the other end. TFTC
On a quicky weekend getaway down to the South Island (from Wellington). I flew into Christchurch on Saturday morning, and then drove down to Timaru for the night. Drove back up to Christchurch Sunday afternoon and flew home late Sunday night. My goal was to catch up with a friend in Timaru, and to target a few specific caches that I need, and a few others just 'cos. This is one of them.
After a few specific caches elsewhere, our plan for the morning was to walk this walkway and get all the caches. We almost succeeded. I had one DNF, and due to poor planning and an unusual lack of commitment on my part we missed one. The rest were found without much trouble. TFTC.

Onto our next trip destination thought we would get this cache, found by Mr vdh56 with P&Vee. TFTC
Starting our trip back to Dunedin with Mr and Mrs VDH56 knowing it is going to take 2 days, Mr VDH56 found this cache for us.

Couldn't find it the first time but walking back to the car we had another go and were determined to get it. They always seem so easy once you've found them

Awesome spot, liked the cache, took a while, but had no pen. That's okay though, TYFTC
Found on a walk of the wetlands with my Mother. What a fabulous wee walk! Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the various species of waterfowl and vegetation. This was a quick easy find - thanks for bringing us here!
We made this one a little harder than it should have been, but got there in the end.
Cheers and thanks,

It's thanks to Geocaching that we discover great places to visit and this wetlands is one of them. Thanks for bringing us here. Left TB
Had a quick search for this a couple of years ago. Today another longish look and located. Tftc
When I reached Timaru, it was time to have a break from driving and to stretch the legs. I pulled over to check for nearby caches and was pleased to see I wasn't far from this one. Just a short amount of searching while my GPSr settled down was needed before I figured out where this treasure was hiding.
