Imagine exploring in secluded areas with no sound but that of bird song; walking through paddocks of quietly grazing sheep and cattle and coming across a copse of native trees and ferns hiding a million years of secrets.

The region’s beauty and mystery give the inspiration for the

painting, sculpture and craft of its people, and has given rise

to individual galleries and the development of Mangaweka

as a renowned art centre.

The unique landscape is truly awesome, with the grand green

hills of the countryside rising to meet the lofty and majestic

Ruahine Ranges. Mount your steed to ride, or simply walk

through the spectacular scenery, breathing in the pure fresh

invigorating air.

BThe mighty Rangitikei River has carved sheer papa (mudstone)

cliffs which define the river and are the shining white iconic

feature of the Rangitikei. The ribbon of clear pure water

meanders through the rich and fertile soils of the hills and

plains which support a strong pastoral farming industry.

In pre-European times local Maori of the Mokai Patea hapu

used the lower Rangitieki River for canoe access, and an

important walking track followed the river valley. With

European settlement, bridle tracks were cut through the bush,

and ultimately allowed access for the development of the

Main Trunk Railway line.
