One thing that had been highlighted, when it came to Wellington, was the over 100 year old funicular railway, that runs from the city centre and up into the upland neighbourhoods. With previous cable car experiences being in the good to great range, I thought this could be time well spent. Unfortunately, Wellington Cable Car was on the other side of the spectrum. Basically nothing but a nice view of the city and harbour, from the Kelburn Lookout. Next door are the Cable Car Museum, which I think must be for those particularly interested, and the upper entrance to Wellington Botanic Garden. Maybe walking back down through the park would have been a treat…?
PS! Finding the entrance to the cable car station, on Cable Car Lane and Lambton Quay, can be a bit tricky. I went past several times. Cars depart every 10 minutes.

Beautiful views from there. I missed this when I went. You got good weather by the looks of things! Thanks for linking #citytripping
This is wintertime, not like Norway, for sure 😀 The best thing was the view. Besides that you didn’t miss out on anything 😉
