“One Tree Hill – Maungakiekie is one of our largest and most culturally significant volcanoes.”
One Tree Hill's land formed through the lava flow from when Maungakiekie/One Tree HIll erupted about 67,000 years ago. You can still see many craters on Maungakiekie today.
Walk to the highest point and see the monument topping the summit and the grave of Sir John Logan Campbell, the 'founding father' of Auckland City.
With more than 170 constructed terraces based around three Māori Pa (fortifications), One Tree Hill is one of the largest former Māori settlement complexes in New Zealand, and has even been claimed to be the largest pre-historic earth fort in the world.
The volcano sits in One Tree Hill Domain, right next to the beautiful grassy parkland and gardens of Cornwall Park, so bring a picnic if it’s warm.
