Godley Head - Taylors Mistake Walkway
- Location
- Drive to the coastal suburb of Sumner, and then head up the Port Hills via Evans Pass Road. Turn left onto the Summit Road for to reach Godley Head car park.
- Description
From the car park at Godley Head the walkway goes up the hill and stays above Breeze Bay. At the saddle the track crosses the Summit Road and from here much of the city is recognisable, including the Heathcote and Avon estuaries and New Brighton Beach.
The walkway joins the Taylors Mistake to Boulder Bay route, “Pilgrims Way”, along which it is easy to see cave dwellings. Please note: Part of this track is precipitous and care should be taken.
From Boulder Bay the track climbs back up to the woolshed and car park.
