| Rangitei / Horowhenua / Manawatu / Tararua Events OverviewBudget Motorhomes | Events | North Island | Rangitei / Horowhenua / Manawatu / Tararua Events Overview On the coastal plains of the southern central North Island, the prosperous farming regions of Rangitikei, Manawatu and Tararua produce milk, horticultural products and sheep. Rangitikei stretches from the Tasman Sea below Wanganui in the south across to the southern part of Tongariro National Park in the north.
Situated between Taupo and Wellington, the Manawatu's landscape sweeps from the high country Ruahine and Tararua Ranges down to the coastal plains and beaches of Tangimoana and Himatangi.
Tararua, (east of the Manawatu Gorge), is bounded by the Ruahine and Tararua Ranges. Visitors exploring these regions will find relaxing country retreats, with award-winning gardens, excellent golf courses, along with antiques and craft stores and historic homes.
For the more adventurous there's horse treks, great tramping tracks and trout fishing. Thrill-seeking visitors will enjoy kayaking and jet-boating through the Manawatu Gorge, scenic helicopter flights, aerobatic flying, 4x4 quad bikes, mountain biking, a 4WD safari, bridge swinging, or how about Formula Ford single-seater racing?
