So far in the series of ‘My Favourite Places’ I have taken you to St.Bathans, Matakana Marlborough Sound and Russell. In this blog I take you back to the South Island and to perhaps the most favourite of all my favourite places.
OTAGO PENINSULA
Each time I visit the Otago Peninsula, my spirit sings. Last year, Lonely Planet rated this amazing part of New Zealand one of the world’s top ten cycle routes.
Portobello Road, the ‘Low Road’ from Dunedin, snakes for 30 kilometres around Otago Harbour on its way to Taiaroa Head. Dotted along its length, 43 distinctive boat sheds add manmade eye candy. These attractive structures have been a feature of Dunedin since the 1920s when they were built to house the rowboats to transport the peninsula’s inhabitants. One of the larger ones sold for $43.000!
