Mount Cargill Lookout is located ten minutes up the road from my place by car. There is nothing there but a transmitter that you can drive under. Its great because on a clear day you can see, the Southern Alps, Waitati and Warrington, Aramoana, Tairoa Head, the entire Otago Penninsula and Otago Harbour, looking out to St Clair. Its the best 360 degree view of Dunedin, its not on this map as the last five minutes of the road is gravel. Its on Cowan Road, which is right up the top of Pine Hill Road. If you want instructions on how to get there, just ask me. Its the best way of finding your bearings and viewing the lie of the land.
