A gateway to the Tararuas, Gladstone Reserve is a horseshoe shaped reserve surrounded by native bush that offers safe swimming in the Ōhau River as well as access to bush walks that will take you to the Waiopehu huts or link to the Te Araroa walkway.
Situated just 10 minutes from Levin’s centre, it’s a great spot for family picnics with the dog. The reserve is just 1.6km up Gladstone Road - just off Tararua Road behind Levin. Take a day trip and enjoy one of the bush walks nearby linking into the Te Araroa walkway, and then take a dip to cool off in the afternoon.
