Mount Kaukau Wellington
“The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand.”Frederic Lawrence Knowles
Want to have a glance of the vast expanse of clear blue sky? Ascend to Mount Kaukau, Wellington—the summit which is 445 meters above sea level and feel the proximity of the firmament with the moon in her hand. Situated on the western side of Wellington harbor near Johnsonville and Khandallah, Mount Kaukau is one of the recognized sightseeing spots in New Zealand. Visiting Wellington without going for a trip to Mount Kaukau would therefore leave your tour an incomplete one.
Mount Kaukau, Wellington is the most visible high point in the Wellington landscape. The locale is further emphasized by the main television transmitter tower the BCL TV transmitter post in Wellington.
However, travelers not only come to this spot to have a glance of the beauty of the night sky with the gorgeous Moon illuminating it, but also to have a scenic view of the city, harbor and the Rimutaka and Tararua Ranges from the summit.
Moreover, on a clear day you may see snow-capped Mt. Tapuaeoenuku in the South Island, whilst northwest is the Porirua Basin and the broad expanse of the Tasman Sea.
