Viewpoint

Lookout Point

The top entrance, on the sealed loop road.

Already here
The view from high on the Cape over Oamaru harbour: moored yachts on pale blue water, the breakwater and beach, the limestone town beyond, and snow on the ranges at the horizon.

Where we are now

A sealed loop road, a car park and an open outlook over the harbour and the town, at the head of the zigzag.

What it becomes

The same view, with planting below it and the second sculpture in sight of the car park.

Why it is in the plan

The 2026 planting went in directly below it, where the most people would see it.

“The art trail will draw people through the Cape to discover what a special place it is. Right now, most visitors don’t go further than the lookout point.”

— Makotukutuku, 2025
