This track is a long traverse of Belmont Regional Park, and a comprehensive exploration of the tops and forests.
It starts at the Dry Creek entrance, off Hebden Crescent, Manor Park north east of Petone along SH2, By train, take the Hutt Valley Line to Manor Park, cross the road and follow a small road left. The entrance is on the right. The track ends at the very industrial Cornish Street right where SH2 leaves Wellington Harbour. This is about 800m back toward Wellington from Petone Station.
Note that farmed tops sections of this track are closed for lambing August to October.
