Pirie Street, Mt Victoria
Wellingtons ultimate late-afternoon playground, Pirie Street gets sunshine until super late, year-round. The only vehicles that go past here are the buses heading in and out of the Mt Victoria Bus Tunnel, and far fewer routes go that way than they used to, so its also really quiet. There’s space to ride a bike, a basketball hoop, standard play equipment, and a fenced toddler section. For the more adventurous, there are also trails up into the Green Belt, including the option to head up to Mt Victoria lookout itself. Parking has always been fine, although we’ve never been during a busy time at the adjoining bowls club, but I’m not sure where the closest toilets are.
