Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Entire climate change plan in NZ is a waste of time. it is two islands of 5 million deplorables. There is nothing they can do to stop climate change, they will go under water and sink. They need to accept that reality and move to other countries like the other 1 million that have abandoned the Islands.

We went there on an overcast day but the view of Wellington was great nonetheless. Roads a bit steep and winding getting there.

Went there specifically for the wind turbine which was maybe a less than 5 minute walk from the parking lot. There was a small info section about it there as well. From the distance you can see a row of other wind turbines.

As we were driving to Wellington, we came across wind turbines. There were many lining the ridges and were quite active. It is great to see that New Zealand is investing into this alternate source of energy.... GOID FOR YOU!!!

The drive up wasn't very long. Very isolated but great open space feeling, right up at the top. Nice atmosphere.

Apparently, there are few walktrails routes options that you can take if you want to explore more.

Can see the usual sceneries of NZ many seas & mountains views from here. Not the most scenic but still nice

Visiting Wellington Wind Turbine was spectacular for the surrounding scenery and to get good views of these gigantic modern windmills up close. Certainly very highly recommend visiting the same to any tourist.

Well, this was deceiving. We loved the trip up to the turbine but when we arrived we had no idea actually how huge this turbine was. The view from up here is spic, the information boards per informative and you get to feel both isolated on top of the hill yet so close to the city below - how weird is that. A must do side trip if you have time

Went to see this huge windmill. The place is at quite a good altitude and gives you a really awesome view. You could actually see a few other windmills far away as well.

You can of course walk up, but by car the road is narrow and winding, however worth the trip to see the city and surrounds from above and sense the size and power of the windmill

Went up to see this, think the international student from Japan liked the view from up the hill more than learning about the turbine. Awkward road up there and footpath not very nice.
