Alice Eaves is a reserve (park) at the north end of Orewa. It is an
easy 15 minute walk from the hostel I'm staying at. There are a small
handful of trails and it doesn't take more than an hour or two to
do the whole thing. I specifically went to see the (now very) scarce
Kauri trees. The Kauri is the local equivalent of the Redwoods on the
North American west coast.
