Packhorse Hut, Banks Peninsula

Weather forecast wasn't looking that flash for the mountains, so went for a stroll up the Kaituna Valley to Packhorse hut in Banks Peninsula.

About 1hr worth of uphil over farmland to the lovely little brick hut and great views over to Lyttleton, Lake Ellesmere and the Port Hills.

Was a little windy so we took a quick look at the 'Remarkable Dykes' rock formations before scuttling back to Chch and onward to a little indoor rock climbing.
