I took the Belmont Trig trail starting and ending at Cornish Street. I was surprised how relatively flat it was until the last 2-3 km up to the trig. The first 3 km winds through a valley next to the Korokoro stream, the last 3km to the trig climbs up through the beautiful native bush - plenty of birdsong. Above the tree line the trail is quite sheltered from wind in most cases by scrub on either side of the track. Unfortunately it was cloudy when I did the trail and so was no view at the top.
