“Auckland’s largest and intact volcanic cone”
If you want to ramble through wide green spaces, One Tree Hill Domain and the neighbouring Cornwall Park form the largest area of parkland in Auckland City. The pastoral Cornwall Park, grazed by sheep and cattle, gives you the impression you are in the countryside. Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill is Auckland’s largest and intact volcanic cone excluding Rangitoto and you get extensive city views from the summit. The 183 metre volcano has three caters and a lava field that extends to the Manukau shoreline. The area was the largest and most intensively settled pa in Auckland, and was the centre of the Maori occupation during the 18th century when tribes of the region were united under the paramount chief Kiwi Tamaki. It is also associated with many of Auckland's influential figures including Sir George Grey and Sir John Logan Campbell who is buried on the summit.
