Welcome to the Mountain Town - Ohakune

Nestled in the shadow of the mighty Mount Ruapehu sits the small township of Ohakune.
Perfectly placed at the southern gateway to the dual World Heritage Tongariro National Park, the perfect peaks, the clear mountain streams, the lush vegetation and the beautiful landscapes that surround the township have enchanted visitors for generations.

As one of New Zealand’s premier winter sports venues and also an up and coming destination for summer outdoor pursuits, Ohakune has something for everyone.

With a superb selection of year round activities, a great choice of accommodation, excellent dining and shopping opportunities and above all a spectacular setting in the very heart of the North Island, Ohakune is the perfect place to escape the city for the weekend, or why not join us for longer and let us show you all that the region has to offer.
