Mount Kaukau

25 Sep

In order to make the most of the beautiful weather over the weekend, the significant other and I walked up Mount Kaukau.  The walk starts off in the bush in Khandallah (which I didn’t realise was a sub-continental word – when you drive around Khandallah, which we did for about 15 minutes because we got lost, most of the names are sub-continental).

The path goes pretty much straight up the side of the hill, mostly in steps.

And then once you get to the top, you get 360 degree views of Wellington, including all the way to the South Island.

Pretty amazing, and definitely worth the walk up the hill!
