Ambury Farm — Attraction in Māngere-Ōtāhuhu

Bring the whānau to meet some farm animals on this fun walk around Ambury Farm in Māngere Bridge.

The path is a mix of grass path and gravel tracks. There is pushchair and wheelchair access around the farm animal enclosures, though these may be inaccessible in wet conditions.

From the car park, head toward the woolshed and milking shed.

Wander through the grassy lanes between the animal enclosures and take your time getting to know the animals. You can see sheep, lambs (seasonal from mid July), goats, cows, pigs, chickens, turkey, rabbits and maybe an elusive peacock.

You're welcome to enter the paddocks to mingle with the animals, except during lambing season (mid-July and early August). Please leave the gates as you find them.

Depending on when you visit, you may be able to watch cow milking (between mid July and early December) and lamb feeding (seasonal from mid July).

There are plenty of picnic and barbecue spots to enjoy after your walk, and lots of space for family games on the grass.

Toilets are available in the main building, Ambury campground and off Kiwi Esplanade.

Dogs are allowed on-leash on the internal Ambury Farm Loop Road area only. They are prohibited from all other areas of Ambury Regional Park. Check Dog walking at Ambury Regional Park before you walk. Public toilet...

We recently visited a fantastic free farm operated by the government, and it was an incredible experience for our family. The fact that it's free is a huge bonus, and the farm is very well taken care of. Our kids had the opportunity to step into a real farm environment, which was both educational and fun.

We were thrilled to be able to enter some of the farm gates and interact closely with a variety of farm animals, including sheep, goats, cows, horses, peacocks, rabbits, and hens. The diversity of animals was impressive, and the farm itself is quite large. We wish we had more time to explore everything.

Although we weren't allowed to feed the animals, it was still a wonderful place to see an authentic farm up close without any cost. As tourists from HK, we found this to be a unique and enjoyable experience, and we highly recommend...

One of Auckland's best kept secrets, Ambury regional park is worth getting to. Get up close with farm animals, have a BBQ, enjoy the views, walk or ride the many and endless trails, and appreciate the rare native birds. A fantastic example of environment restoration and regeneration Beautiful park, truly amazing to have the ability to feed animals, walk with them and be one with nature.

Brilliant place for kids, interactive...
