The Parks, Regional Parks and Cemeteries run by Auckland Council vary significantly in size and in the services that are available.
Our parks and open spaces play a big role in how Auckland looks and feels, and help us to:
- Express our culture and heritage
- Get active and stay fit through sports and recreation
- Gather together as a community through events and festivals
- Link the city together, and help people get to their destination
- Take care of our environment and enhance our native biodiversity.
