Mount Kaukau Summit Walk

Looking for a challenge? Climb one of Wellington's highest peaks for breathtaking views of the city and surrounding suburbs.

There are several walking tracks that lead to the Mt Kaukau summit. Each will take between one and two hours to complete (there and back). The climb is quite steep, but there are benches and picnic tables along the way where you can take a break and enjoy the view.

Access points are via Woodmancote Road and Simla Crescent in Khandallah, Sirsi Terrace in Broadmeadows, and Truscott Avenue in Johnsonville.
