Southern Pegasus Walkway, Waimairi to Spencer Park: Christchurch 360 Trail

 Adventures on the Christchurch 360 Trail... I've mentioned on this blog before that I do a bit of walking for general fitness. One of the places I like to go is along the  Southern Pegasus Track , from Waimairi Beach to Spencer Park. A circuit along this track with a  return via the beach is approx.13 kilometers in total or 3-4 hours walking time.

On the Southern Pegasus Track/Christchurch 360 Trail: The South Pegasus Track is a dual use MTB/walking track from North Beach all the way to Spencer Park. A lot of it is along the sand hills backing the local beaches but slightly less than half the journey is through Bottle Lake Plantation on the North Eastern outskirts of Christchurch.
