Albert Park is a public park in central Auckland, bounded by Wellesley Street East, Princes Street, Bowen Avenue and Kitchener Street. From the entrance at the corner of Bowen Ave and Kitchener St, sealed footpaths climb steeply through a variety of trees to the large flat area at the summit, where a formal layout of paths and flower gardens encircle a fountain. Albert Park is home to many large trees, some dating to the 1800s, including ombú and pōhutukawa of a similar age to those in the nearby Emily Place Reserve.
