Ross Creek Reserve

One of the best walking, running and cycling areas in Dunedin is the Ross Creek Reserve, in the middle of which is the Ross Creek Reservoir, one of the oldest man-made dams in New Zealand.

Options range from a peaceful walk around the gravel circuit beside Ross Creek Reservoir to an extended ramble through the network of tracks.

The Ross Creek Reserve is home to a range of native bush, making it well populated with native bird life, such as wood pigeons, fantails and bellbirds which can be seen and heard while walking on the track.
