Mangere Mountain

So, Aucklanders, if you are anything like me then you've spent a lot of your life in this city, but when you haven't, you've whizzed over the Mangere Bridge out to the airport. Turn your head to the right and there is Mangere Mountain
We went for a walk on Sunday morning.

It was quite a walk to the top. The dogs loved the freedom to run.
Anton and the dogs ran to the bottom of the crater chasing rabbits



The views back across the city were really nice.
The crater has a dome plug. This is where the molten lava hit cool enough air and stopped.
We all made it to the top

Julene and Anton take in the views
We walked round the crater rim



We had a lovely morning at Mangere Mountain.
