Flagstaff, Dunedin


This view is from the summit of Flagstaff (668m), part of the Dunedin shield volcano, centred on Otago harbour, that was active 10-20 million years ago. My husband and I walked up there on Sunday afternoon. I realised that I had acclimatised to being away from Cambridge when we were discussing where to go for a walk and I commented that the climb was only 170m from the car park. Then I thought 'only 170m?' (To put this in context, there is an alternative route that starts about 100m from our house. From this starting point the climb is 500m.)
