Introduction

One Tree Hill in Cornwall Park is an ancient volcanic crater that is approximately a 20-minute drive from downtown Auckland. It stands at a height of 182 meters and is one of Auckland's highest points, offering stunning views of the entire Auckland region. Its name comes from a famous pine tree that used to stand near the summit, but it no longer exists. At the summit, there is a monument and the grave of Sir John Logan Campbell, known as the founder of Auckland. Cornwall Park itself is like a hidden gem of urban green space, with vast lawns where sheep and cows graze peacefully, providing a stark contrast to the hustle and bustle of downtown Auckland. In spring, the park is also adorned with blooming cherry blossoms, making it a great place to take a stroll, enjoy the scenery and immerse yourself in nature. If you have plenty of time, make sure to visit One Tree Hill in Cornwall Park and explore its beauty.
