Wrights Hill Fortress Wellington
New Zealand - Auckland - Christchurch - Queenstown - Wellington
Except Open Days, Wright’s Hill Fortress, Wellington remains closed. However, on Open Days a one hour long guided tour takes public and tourists through the underground channels of this fort which inevitably proves to be a fantastic experience. Moreover, the place is also famous for its grand 360 degree views from the summit, good bush walks and picnic spots.
