Ascend to Serenity: Exploring Mission Hill's 199 Steps
You haven’t visited Levuka if you haven’t climbed its iconic 199 steps to Mission Hill. Built just beside the old township, the concrete stairs start near the town’s hospital and take you past some of Levuka’s oldest buildings including Methodist missions, homes and schools.

As you climb you might hear choir singing from churches in the valley or get a friendly 'Bula!’ from kids going to or returning from school. It's a steep climb into the foothills but the views out over the town and past the reef are well worth the sweat to get there. You’ll also get to understand why the drastic gradients of the surrounding mountains paused the towns growth and Fiji’s capital had to be moved to Suva.
