Stratty, a bigger hole than my town!

by hailsbails - last update: Jun 6, 2005

Who needs the Big Ben??!

Glockenspiel Tower
The town's clock tower reflects the Shakespearian heritage and features New Zealand's only Glockenspiel. It is also the only one in the Southern Hemisphere. You can see the Glockenspiel in action 7 days a week at 11.00am, 1.00pm and 3.00pm. I dont really recommend driving to Stratford to see this.

Fast track to the mountain

Stratford (Stratty) is commonly the path to take to the mountain. Easy access and it leads you to the highlight of a trip up the mountain, and thats seeing Dawsons Falls, which is pictured here. This was taken on our Geography Trip, which i nearly died on, falling down the mountain on a hike. Hahah what a retard!

Great mountain views

As you can see Stratford boasts fantastic mountain views. Its rare to see the mountain any closer and clearer, so Stratford has that as an advantage.
