Franklin is a truly amazing region with so much diversity yet very close proximity to Auckland.  During 2020/2021 Destination Franklin held three stakeholder meetings across the district to explore the most accessible and memorable experiences for visitors and we put these together for you as suggested itineraries.  We identified 5 discrete itineraries that will allow you to plan for a 3 day weekend escape from Auckland.  You will find these listed under the Discover tab above.  In addition, we have lots of attractions and activities all year round, especially for walkers, art lovers and history buffs.  You can find all these in the Discover tab too.  We look forward to welcoming you soon.
