Cable Car
One of Wellington’s most famous attractions is the little red cable car that clanks up the steep slope from Lambton Quay to Kelburn. At the top are a cafe, the Wellington Botanic Gardens, an observatory and the small-but-nifty Cable Car Museum, which tells the cable car’s story since it was built in 1902 to open up hilly Kelburn for development. Take the cable car back down the hill, or ramble down through the Botanic Gardens (a 30- to 60-minute walk, depending on your wend).
