The Pinnacles and Cape Palliser

On New Years eve Neena, myself and a friend visited The Pinnacles and Cape Palliser. Both of these sites are situated around 2 hours drive from Wellington along the wild and rugged East Coast.

There are some weird and distinctly phallic rock formations at the Pinnacles which are accessed by a half hour walk from the road.

Cape Palliser literally marks the end of the road, and its main claim to fame is its lighthouse which is reached by climbing up 250 rather steep steps.
