About
The breathtaking views and bush-clad valleys of Belmont Regional Park make it a favourite open space for picnics, walking, running, mountain biking and horse riding. Located in the hill country between Porirua and the Hutt Valley, the park features the historic Korokoro Dam, Pareaho Pa, World War II ammunition stores and the original main coach road from Wellington. Climb to the trig, enjoy sweeping views over Porirua Harbour, the Lower Hutt valley and the remnants of ancient boulder block fields.
At Dry Creek, campers can enjoy basic facilities with toilets and drinking water. Dogs are welcome but not in the farmed areas of the park. The Old Morton Dam has toilets and the lower dam has an open grassy area, ideal for picnics, accessible by wheelchair and baby buggies.
