Review & FAQ:

Mount Victoria rises 196 meters above the very center of Wellington and is a big part of the city, its activities, and landscapes. It is also by far the best spot to see the city in all its glory, with the ocean stretching beyond. To reach Mount Victoria Lookout, you can drive from the Business District, or hike along the green, shady Town Belt. Once on the top of Mount Victoria, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Hutt Valley, Tinakori Hill, Miramar Peninsura, and Matiu/Somes island. Relax, have a snack and a cold drink, and watch ferries, cruise ships, and sail boats come and go as the sun slowly sets into the ocean in the big show of colors.
