Road to Peace and Quiet (Waikato region)

Mangakino is now a friendly peaceful village, which had it's origins as the base camp for 4 hydro dams of the Waikato River chain of power stations. It is largely holiday homes now, with wake boarding being a major activity on the lake as well as sport rowing.
The "Bus Stop Cafe" at the end of the road lakeside has good coffee and hamburgers!
It is a pleasant 10 minute walk from the Bus Stop Cafe at the lakeside reserve along the pathway/boardwalk of the Waikato River Walkway heading south. Alternatively you can drive right to it also along the golf course side road.
The cache is a snaptop plastic 150ml container with GC notice, log and small pencil inside.
Please replace the camo well.
The town is heading to be a "Motorhome Friendly Town" with the NZMCA, and has installed an excellent dump station at the rugby grounds to assist. There are supplies etc available and the town pharmacy has an extensive hardware and gift department worth visiting.
