Main Centres

New Plymouth
In the rhododendron season, New Plymouth’s parks and gardens are beautiful to behold. Or pull on your hiking boots and aim for Mount Taranaki.

Towns

Eltham
You’ll enjoy Eltham for its pretty Victorian buildings. The main employer here is a cheese factory – buy something tasty for the picnic basket.
Hawera
If you love milk and cheese, schedule a stop in Hawera – home of the southern hemisphere’s largest single site dairy factory.
Inglewood
Stop off at Inglewood before you venture into the Egmont National Park. You can pick up provisions and ask about hiking and climbing safety.
Opunake
If you travel ‘Surf Highway 45’, you can’t miss Opunake. Stay a while to enjoy the beach and the historic walkway, which ends at Te Namu Pa.
Patea
If you’re passing through Patea, stop and ask a local to sing Poi-E for you. It’s one of New Zealand’s favourite songs and it was invented here.
Stratford
The town of Stratford looks after hikers, bikers and climbers who plan to venture into the Egmont National Park. Mount Taranaki is right next door.
Waitara
Bridge swinging is a Waitara specialty, or you could arrange to tour magnificent Manukorihi Pa. North Taranaki is full of surprises.
