At the far end of Aro Street, between Brooklyn and the sanctuary
now known as Zealandia, lies the
Polhill Gully. A few years ago it was opened
up to walkers and bikers. We did explore the area soon after it was opened
but I can’t find any reference in the blog. On Sunday we did a quick walk up
the first part of the track. It climbs up fairly steeply from the valley with
views over the city,
The track is well formed, with seats for waiting and
admiring the views.
Our weather has been quite extraordinary of late. Long
spells of settled fine weather, higher than usual temperatures and very little
rain. This was the record for the preceding month last Thursday.
It did rain
a fair bit that day but we could do with a lot more over winter.
