Khandallah Park

Simply awesome. Having a beautiful forested mountain in your back garden to walk through is just fantastic. But be warned....it's quite a walk and a lot of steps in place

It's a long walk up to Mount Kaukau Lookout, but totally worth it. The scenery is calming and beautiful and the view from the top...words cannot describe

I love soaking up the atmosphere in this piece of nature... After that I'm more creative in my work...nDo you have one hour and a half and feel like hiking? That's a good idea!

Walk up through the bush and admire the view over Wellington from Mt Kaukau. Walk across to Clarke Street and enjoy a peaceful stroll through the bush there. Small kids will have fun in the little playground don't forget the swings by the path into the bush! or playing in the stream.nThere is a nice cafe with outdoor seating, and in summer the very popular, unheated, pool is open. Croquet and lawn bowl clubs also on Woodmancote Road.nQuite good on a Sunny day.

A great climb to the top, the view is well worth it.
