I got a bit more exercise today by climbing up through the Botanical Reserve to the geographic 'centre' of New Zealand. It was pretty steep walk in places on gravelly paths. This would've been fine except I had my Birkenstocks on -- definitely not ideal 'hiking' footwear!
The 'centre' is marked by a plaque and a spike type thing (it probably has a proper geographical description).
After my climb I took another trail through the reserve which lead to the Founder's Brewery and Cafe -- my destination for lunch, and the opportunity to slake my thirst with a tasty beer brewed on the premises!
