Ash Hill, Volcanic formation in Wiri, Auckland, New Zealand.
Ash Hill features a tuff cone with an explosion crater spanning 150 meters in width and rises 34 meters above sea level.
Radiocarbon dating reveals that Ash Hill formed approximately 31,800 years ago, during the same period as neighboring Wiri Mountain.
Despite its name suggesting volcanic origins, Ash Hill received its designation from nearby Ash Road, named after local ash trees.
The industrial development surrounding Ash Hill limits direct access to geological features, requiring visitors to explore designated observation points.
The volcano maintains a prominence of 7 meters, representing the vertical distance between its peak and the next highest terrain point.
