Description
A scenic loop track taking in the Sister City Gardens and sculptures showcasing six of Christchurch's sister cities - Adelaide (South Australia), Christchurch (England), Gansu Province (China), Kurashiki (Japan), Seattle (USA), and Songpa-Gu (Korea). This short loop can be used as an introduction to trail running or a warm up/cool down in conjunction to the many other trail options that start from Halswell Quarry.

Staying Safe
Easy.
The only unmarked part of the trail is when you come off the hill and skirt around the edge of one of the dog exercise areas, you soon join back up with the trail which goes over a seriously cool bridge.
Generally good.
Cellphone, Map.
Drink fountain at the start/end
Trail is well formed and largely all weather, one section heading uphill may get a bit slick during rain.
