Find yourself beside the Maitai River and follow the walkway for kms up the Valley. A great nature walk/run which starts just two blocks from the front door.

Great menu and $20 roast on Sunday nights and other good value and quality meals available. Generic wine list but a busy and vibrant venue with live music over the weekend. Macs beer. Try the non-alc sodas for something different.
