Hansen Park is located next to the Heathcote River in Opawa and is very popular with walkers, joggers and dogs – I lost count of how many dogs were out being walked, and laughed at their antics, such as the golden retriever that jumped into the river and came out covered in mud (poor owner was fortunately laughing though). It’s a beautiful spot any time of the year but with the Autumn colours and the late afternoon sun it’s quite magical. Dogs and humans alike seemed very happy.
