A memorable mountain experience, I love this place for its panoramic view of mountains, islands, sea and city.
Park on the Vico Road and descend the steps over the railway line to the microclimate of White Rock Beach, Killiney Hill rises steeply behind cutting off the wind. Go back up and across the Vico Road into the oak and pine towards the hilltop to the Obelisk.
Drop into the coffee shop at the Victoria Gate entrance on Killiney Hill Road.
