Te Moenga-o-Wheke / The Tors can be accessed on the trails Lyttelton to Diamond Harbour, Whigs' Flying Fifty (WFF), Gondola Gallop, The ATH (Around The Harbour), The Crater Rim, Christchurch 360 Trail - Sugarloaf Hills Section, Port Hills Protocol, The North Faces and Takahe to Taylors from our trail directory.

Tricky little steep climb from the Crater Rim trail and Summit Road. Well worth a detour if you are following the Crater Rim trail.

The Tors is a prominent Port Hills landmark from both the Christchurch and Lyttelton sides of the hills. Access is on a formed trail off the crater Rim Track, with spectacular and unique views from the summit marker (a Dept of Lands and Survey pole)
