Photo of a weak sun through the branches of a leafless tree.

Photo of Rangitoto island and the Auckland landscape, as seen from One Tree Hill.

Photo of a sign board on the base of the One Tree Hill. The sign reads, “No buses beyond this point.”

Photo of the Rangitoto island in the distance and a small yacht in front of it, as seen from the shore.
