Wither Hills Farm Park

There are several ways into the park, I entered from the southern end of Weld St. The climb is steep and steady for around 1 hr but the view is well worth it. The green rolling hills of the region are
unmistakable and on a clear day you can see the North Island clearly across Cook straight.

This is probably the best area to see Blenheim city.

Early spring with the lush green growth taken on a cloudy day produces brilliant tones.

As the seasons change in Marlborough so does the colour of the surrounding hills. By summer the hills between Blenheim and the Awatere Valley will take on the brown hues of a drought prone area.

The view North towards Picton. On a cloudy day the surrounding view and colours change by the minute. I could easily have spent the entire day sitting in this spot clicking off photos of the area.

The view across Cloudy Bay toward Port Underwood.

From the highest area in the park you can see Wairau Lagoons and Vernon Bluffs. The Bluff in the foreground is called Bastion and sits above State Highway 1.
