Belmont Regional Park is a Wellington Regional park located between Lower Hutt and Porirua, New Zealand. It is the largest of the Wellington Regional parks, stretching close to 15km from Wellington Harbour to Haywards and 10km to Porirua, containing farm land, native bush, and peaks up to 456m (Belmont Trig).
There are several entrances from the Hutt Valley side and two on the Porirua side. Some tracks permit mountain biking and horse riding.
The park features numerous tracks, including the 6-7 hour 'Puke Ariki' traverse, which is a favourite for hikers and mountainbikers alike.
