Tawhiri means welcome, and so do we.
Tawhiri-matea is the atua of wind and weather - you stand a good chance of meeting him when you stay in Waiouru.
Tawhiri may be the easiest place in New Zealand to find; we are the first gate you see when you come into Waiouru from Ohakune; the last gate before the 100kph sign as you leave.
You won't find anything else like this in Waiouru - self-contained comfort with a spectacular view of Ruapehu from your own deck. The Adventure Highway starts at our gate and the adventures you will find on it are limited only by the time you have to spare. Explore New Zealand's history and your family's connections with it at the National Army Museum, or explore the geographic marvels of the Ruapehu District and the Tongariro World Heritage Area. Easy access to skiing, fishing and hunting - and the highest 18-hole golf course in New Zealand is only minutes away.
