Sightseeing
This is not for the weak or unfit, you have been warned. Takes about 30 minutes to get to the top and the view is spectacular, quite a reward. You need to be very careful coming back down due to it being so steep, combined with loose rock. If you love a workout and a challenge this is a must do.

This is a beautiful area to explore if you are visiting in Wellington. Stunning little spot close to the main road. Lots of small walks up the hills from here. I highly recommend the waterfall track, takes about 10 minutes to get to the very picturesque cascade waterfall.
