★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Tucked away and only a short walk uphill to this well maintained memorial. Impressive views over the harbour as well as the structure of the marble memorial. Nice stop along the scenic coastal road.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On a good day the views are really lovely, on a bad day they are WILD!
The walk up is through trees and the local PiWakaWaka keep an eye on you most of the way

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great little known spot. The memorial is quite large and very well maintained. The memorial and crypt are built from pearly white marble which makes it stand out from other buildings in Wellington. It's a quite and peaceful place with great views of the harbor as well as a great spot for plane spotting, especially on the hill behind the memorial.
Up the hill is the remains of some WWII bunkers. The concrete structures are still standing and accessible.
It's a short bush walk up a well maintained track from the road to get to the memorial. The car park is quite small and not very well sign posted. We had a bit of trouble parking as there were a few visitors when we arrived.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fantastic place to visit. Beautiful spot with an amazing memorial to a special PM. Make sure you walk up the hill from the memorial to checkout the WW2 bunkers. Easy family walk. Great photo opportunities with beautiful architecture, landscape views over the harbour and the city and lots of flowers and bugs in season. Parking is fairly limited and not well sign posted. It’s just south of the lighthouse.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A lovely surprising place. Well looked after. A good time to sit and relax. I don't know if it is there but a board to explain the area would be a good thing. Pitt about the bunkers higher up the way they have been defaced and not cleaned from litter. Otherwise a great walk.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Aside from the fact the memorial is to a man now known to be racist- it's a beautiful spot on the peninsula with views in multiple directions as well as the marble building itself. Well worth a visit

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Memorial was spectacular, and very peaceful, bunkers weren't amazing, but the cows and the view make it definitely worth your while!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Can walk here but some of the way is overgrown and paddocks. Not ideal for wheelchair or strollers
A lovely walk and views
