From the summit, you can enjoy spectacular views of the city and its harbours. - Cornwall Park - Cornwall Park is the largest volcanic park in Auckland. Sir John Logan Campbell gifted Cornwall Park to New Zealand in 1901. Many Aucklanders visit this park for picnics and BBQs. The park is home to numerous sheep and cows, which are owned by the council. With more than 350 species and 8000 trees, Cornwall Park is a paradise for tree lovers! - Ayrlies Garden & Wetlands - Situated in the gently rolling country of east Auckland. This is one of New Zealand’s best-known gardens, characterized by sweeping lawns and informal but detailed plantings by ponds and waterways. A strong but sensitive use of colour is a hallmark of Ayrlies, seen best in the vibrant border where ‘hot’ colours are used to great effect and in other areas where old roses, clematis, and perennials are combined in romantic profusion. The garden now covers some 4 hectares of rolling terrain, with large lawns, ponds, and waterfalls. Now over 50 years old, the garden is nearing maturity. Trees and shrubs form a changing backdrop for the garden. View lines to the Hauraki Gulf and within the garden are preserved with careful arboriculture. A large Ayrlies Wetland area links the garden to the sea.
