Pukeiti (Auckland)



Pukeiti is one of the volcanoes in the Auckland volcanic field. The spatter cone is the smallest volcano in Auckland, reaching 30 m above sea level, and has a shallow crater over 30 m wide. The crater rim was quarried on the south and east side. Extensive lava poured out from this vent to form a lava flow field to the north and east. It is now part of the Otuataua Stonefields reserve.

The New Zealand Ministry for Culture and Heritage gives a translation of "cabbage tree hill" for Pukeitī.
