⚠️ Rata Street Loop Track Closure ⚠️

Heads up! A slip on the Rata Street Loop Track in Naenae has brought down multiple trees, blocking the lower section of the track near the stream.

For your safety, this section of the track is currently closed and track closure signage has been installed.

Please do not attempt to pass through the affected area and follow all signage on site. We’ll provide updates once the track can be safely reopened.

Thanks for your patience and understanding while we work through this issue 🌳

Wesley Rātā Village sits on land that includes the Rātā Street Loop track, and we're keen to connect with our community to help take care of it! Check out these two events coming up in February, in partnership with Naenae Nature Trust, to learn about and help care for this precious piece of Naenae:

Once again, someone has been helping themselves to newly-planted natives from our restoration site beside the stream at the north end of Naenae Park.

If you see any suspicious behaviour around our plantings, please do something about it - for starters, drop us a message if you’ve noticed anyone with a bunch of new small flaxes in their garden…
