Wanganui is the home of "The New Zealand Rugby Museum", the first of its kind in the world.  If Golf is your passion, visit the Brookfield Park Golf Course and Mini Golf catering to all levels of skill.There are also some amazing gardens open for the public to visit. 

For something a bit different  you could visit Splattered Platter a ceramic studio and Paint  Studio.For the aminal lovers try a visit to Owlcatraz a Native Bird and Wildlife Park with inmates  such as OwlCapone and Owlviss Presley  the visit is sure to please all ages Wanganui is a  beautiful city one of the prettest city's I have visited, with hanging pots of flowers along the main city sreets. 

You will find plenty of shopping opportunites but for those of you who want to relax why not take a leisurely cruise aboard the restored paddle steamer PS Waimarie and sit back and enjoy the ride. 

For the thrillseekers climb aboard for a action packed ride in a jetboat and race toward the world famouse Bridge To Nowhere or canoe your way down the Whanganui River if this is more your pace

Map It!

Located midway between Auckland and Wellington, near to the World Heritage National Park, on 20 acres, this accommodation is worth the train trip or drive to get there.
It is just 15 minutes from the Mt. Ruapehu skifields, the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, and within short driving range of Taupo and the Waitomo Caves.

Wood Pigeon Lodge is very secluded and offers the rustic charm of a converted barn on four levels. Sleeps up to 11, but 8 are more comfortable over four bedrooms.

There are fantastic mountain and bush views from the large property, making it a perfect base summer or winter.

 A B&B homestay in a quiet country township an hour south of the National Park and just a few mintues from the very popular Vinegar Hill Campground, famous for its New Years Gay celebrations!
Aside from the proximity to the Mt. Ruapehu ski fields and the Gravity Canyon bungy jumping spot, there's plenty of interesting attractions in the township. Some of these are a art gallery in a old church, a cafe in an elevated DC 3 aircraft, walking tracks along the old rail line, a frightening flying fox, and river rafting adventures.

Sounds like a nice place to lay your head for a day or two of exploring.
