The best time to go to Totara Park is during the summer months, from December to February, or the shoulder seasons of spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May).Summer offers the warmest and driest weather, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, swimming in the river, and picnicking. The longer daylight hours mean you can enjoy the park well into the evening. Families with children often find this period superb for making the most of the park's natural playgrounds and open spaces.For those who prefer milder temperatures and fewer crowds, the shoulder seasons are an excellent choice. Spring brings blooming native plants and a fresh feel to the trails, while autumn showcases beautiful changing leaf colours, especially along the riverbanks.
