Auckland Top 27 in Can't Miss Attractions

We had a lot of fun and came to explore these tunnels in humid weather! I suggest you put the torch in the dark, it will make you feel safe. This is a fairly steep climbing track...The staff here are very friendly and helpful, they will do their best to meet all our needs. It can be fast and easy (just be aware of the upcoming cars). It's full of history, it's very interesting to come here, it's full of fun. Don’t forget to watch the scenery on top of the stone building so you can get an overview of it. It’s perfect for a family to have a picnic...great idea!

This place is located in Devonport, the commanding height of the pier. It is in the best position for combat fortifications. Therefore, during the First World War, several antiaircraft artillery positions were built here to defend against incoming enemy forces. There are military relics, you can overlook Auckland City, the road up the mountain is narrow, drive carefully, there are not too many parking spaces, don't choose a particularly popular time to go, it is better to go during the day!
