How this list is built

Each place is classified from its own Wikidata type, not from its name, and is ordered by measured straight-line distance from the centre of Dunedin. Distances are great-circle kilometres between two published coordinates — this page does not publish travel times, transport schedules, opening hours, ticket prices, or rankings. Confirm access, facilities, and seasonal conditions with an official source before travelling.

How far these are

Reachability is a second axis over the same places: the category says what a destination is, the band says how far it sits from Dunedin. Distances are measured in a straight line — this page publishes no travel times.
