Luxury Accommodation New Zealand
... Wanganui-Manawatu
Except for the rolling coastal lowlands around Wanganui (opens the Wanganui tourism site in a new window), the hinterland is very rugged and there are only two winding roads following river valleys up to the volcanic plateau.
A large part of the hill country is included in the Whanganui National Park, through which flows the historic Whanganui River, New Zealand's longest navigable waterway.
Note that the river is spelt with an "h" and the town, not...
The river was an important means of access for pre-European Maori, European settlers, and for intrepid tourists heading for the central North Island.
Modern-day visitors can travel up the Whanganui River by jetboat or riverboat into the heart of the Whanganui National Park, or canoe downstream over gentle rapids.
There are historic tribal villages along the way, where Maori welcome visitors who want to experience their unique lifestyle and cultural traditions.
