Otorohanga is an ideal place to enjoy the rural hospitality of the
Waikato region.
New Zealand's "kiwi town" is the closest centre for exploring the vast underground caverns of the
Waitomo Caves, and it's also home to the
Otorohanga Kiwi House & Native Bird Park - a vital breeding centre for the endangered kiwi bird. You can view this national icon in the park's nocturnal house, or see the many other native species housed in the outdoor enclosures. If you prefer to do your exploring below the ground, the fascinating Waitomo Caves are a just a 15-minute drive south-west of Otorohanga. These vast limestone caverns with their stalactites, stalagmites and glowworms are one of New Zealand's most famous attractions. Take a guided walking tour or set your pulses racing on a blackwater rafting, cave tubing or abseiling adventure. Above ground, there are bush walks, horse treks, garden tours and museums to keep you entertained.
