Western Heights, Waikato

Western Heights is a suburb on the western boundary of the city of Hamilton in the Waikato Region of North Island, New Zealand.^[1]

Skyline landmarks include the water reservoir and a block of gum trees. As these mature many have had to be culled. Google Earth maps highlight the area as the most clearly defined block to Hamilton's west. Situated as it is to the west of the ridge on the city's boundary, the suburb is a little exposed to wind but the views are good.
