Amusement park ride

Fabulous miniature train set up in Havelock North. The length of the ride is very decent, and there are lots of features like a viaduct, several bridges and tunnels to enjoy. There are multiple trains running at once, so when if it's busy you're not waiting too long for a ride... This is so important when you have toddlers.The fares are very reasonable, especially given the amount of work that would have gone on to develop the railway in the first place. The whole thing is run by volunteers, which is impressive, but also I guess allows the fares to be as low as they are.The only issue we had was nothing to do with the set up itself, but by selfish people who can't be bothered waiting their turn. That was a minority though, as most people there were well behaved, and very respectable.We had a great time there, despite having to tell 2 toddlers it was time to go, and they couldn't ride the trains any more. Highly recommend coming here if you're a miniature train enthusiast, or if you have young kids, as you won't be disappointed.

Great place to spend time with the family. Train rides are $2 per person or cheaper with a concession ticket. All run by dedicated volunteers. Highly recommended.

Always fun and lines moving fast

Great place for the whole family. Really enjoyed the train rides!

Great place to walk a dog. Off leash and on leash areas. Be wary that there are no signs between on and off leash. On leash areas have railway tracks so need to be careful. TrainTracks look amazing and would be great for kids. Miniature town with tunnels and bridges. Be nice if there was more native bush

Absolutely loved our afternoon at Good Planet!!! I'd suggest picking strawberries/raspberries before the kids take a dip at the splash park. Nice way for them to cool off. The fruit smoothies and ice creams are delicious!

I was at Keirunga to attend a quilting group meeting. The cyclone had created a shambles with the trees, so sad.

Great place. We spent most of the day here today. It is on the pricey side though when it comes to strawberry picking. You have to pay $5 per person (even for young ones) plus the bucket. But other then that it was great. Kids absolutely loved the adventure park and the water park is amazing !!One thing I will say is if you plan to spend the day, pack a picnic. We just assumed they sold food other then ice cream and milkshakes. But unfortunately they do not.

I went at the start of the season. The pick your own part was great. The plants are in great condition and berries bountiful. Even with hordes of people there was plenty of parking and it did not feel crowded in the fields.You do need to queue to pay for your ticket and container (can't take your own) and it's a slight Walk to the actual fields. There is a free train" to take you closer to the field if you are willing to queue. Broad Rim hats are recommended as umbrellas in the fields can be inconsiderate depending on how spread out people are. That said outside of the fields umbrellas can be a life saver on hot sunny days as there is limited shade. Any shoe would be fine but look out for the occasional mud puddle.The inflatable area was a bit of a let down unless you got a young family. There are inflatables for 12y and under (more enjoyable the younger they are) and an 'adventure' area that caters to bigger kids. The staff were amazing but they are seriously understaffed and the activities only allowed for a few kids at a time so queues were long and slow with some people opting to just leave. Go look before you pay as you might not get the value out of the play area.Water inflatable area was under construction but looked amazing

Strawberry ok price increased from time to time at east a couple of dollars more than our first visit. Tram is convenient. Putting an ad along state highway 16 must be expensive. Do not enter signs written in English and Chinese, can you also put Te Reo Maori, French and Spanish on as political correctness?
