More about this image

The prime time to visit Te Kuiti is in autumn, when the Te Kuiti Muster is in full swing. This event is normally held the weekend after Easter each year. As well as all things sheepish (shearing contests, sheep races and more), you can see Maori culture groups performing. At other times of the year, Te Kuiti is a good base for exploring the Waitomo Caves area. Local beauty spots include the Tatsuno Japanese Garden, Mangaokewa Scenic Reserve, Te Kuiti Lookout and Brook Park. The Maori meeting house Tokanganui-a-Noho is beautifully carved and can be visited by arrangement.
Functional facts: Approx. population 4500, i-SITE Visitor Centre, good range of shops, accommodation and services.
