Duration: approx four hours
A strong norwesterly wind was predicted for our walk but what little wind we experienced did not dominate the day. Our leader David suggested that anyone who wanted a head-start could begin the walk early. So it was not until we had all climbed the steep Bridle Path up to the Summit Road that our group of 18 walkers was together.
Having descended into Lyttelton we were reminded of the season by all the spring flowers on the hillside as we walked through the township on our way to Cass Bay.
After lunch admiring the view of the bay, we returned via the Coastal Path, passing by pretty Corsair Bay then the marina to catch the bus through Lyttelton Tunnel back to our starting point at the Gondola Terminus.
