Datos rápidos: At 196 meters, it is the highest natural point in the city, offering a full 360-degree panorama that spans from Rangitoto Island to the Waitakere Ranges. The crater at the summit measures 50 meters wide and shows visible lava flows from the volcano's last eruption about 28,000 years ago.
Destacados: A rare volcanic site where you can safely walk right around the massive 50-meter crater rim and peer down into a lush, green bowl surrounded by native bush. On clear days, the sunrise from this spot paints a golden-orange sky over Auckland's skyline, creating a breathtaking natural light show.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear sturdy shoes for the uneven crater rim path.
- Bring a camera or smartphone for panoramic shots especially at sunrise.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer fewer crowds.
