Dunedin Regains Title for World’s Steepest Street
Dunedin’s Baldwin Street has once again claimed its prestigious title as the world’s steepest street, triumphantly reclaiming the honor from a village in Wales. In a thrilling twist of fate, Dunedin’s very own surveyor, Toby Stoff, played a crucial role in this remarkable victory, showcasing his unwavering dedication to his hometown.
### The Battle for Supremacy
In 2019, the world was shocked when the title of the steepest street was snatched away by Ffordd Pen Llech in Harlech, Wales. This unexpected turn of events left Dunedin reeling, but not for long. Toby Stoff, armed with determination and a keen eye for detail, embarked on a mission to challenge the validity of this claim and bring the glory back to Baldwin Street.
### A Hero’s Journey
Toby’s relentless pursuit of truth led him to the distant lands of Harlech, where he meticulously examined the rival street, determined to uncover any discrepancies. His meticulous efforts paid off, as he successfully proved that Baldwin Street was indeed steeper, restoring Dunedin’s rightful place as the home of the world’s steepest street.
### A Triumph Worth Celebrating
This week, Dunedin proudly unveiled an official plaque at the pinnacle of Baldwin Street, commemorating Toby’s heroic feat and solidifying the city’s reputation as the ultimate destination for thrill-seekers and adventurers.

May we continue to strive for excellence and uphold the legacy of Dunedin’s Baldwin Street, the undisputed champion of the world’s steepest streets.
