Manawatu Regional Information

Palmerston North

Palmerston North lies on the Manawatu Plains, nestled between the Ruahine and Tararua mountain ranges, in the central southern region of New Zealand's North Island. The city lies a few kilometers to the east of the magnificent Manawatu Gorge, carved by the Manawatu River through the mountain ranges. The region is one of fertile pastoral farmland and Palmerston North is the main service centre for the region.

Rafting, kayaking, horse trekking, mountain biking and rock climbing are just some of the things you can do. Real Kiwi culture comes in many forms here. Garden lovers will enjoy visiting some fabulous private and public gardens, including one of the top five rose gardens in the world.

In Palmerston North, you can explore the world's first museum devoted to Rugby the New Zealand Rugby Museum.

Every river has its specialities. The Rangitikei provides thrills with bungy jumping and rafting, the Manawatu has kayaking in the gorge, and the smaller waterways have hundreds of picturesque places to flick a fly-fishing rod.
