Mangawhero River Walkway
The Walkway is a memorial to the pioneers of the mountain Road.
Mangawhero River ,
This river starts high up Mount Ruapehu and descends over two giant waterfalls, carving its way through the debris of previous eruptions. Following a fault line down the mountain, the Mangawhero eventually joins the Whangaehu River.
Mangawhero River Walkway
Developed by Ohakune 2000 Incorporated with assistance from Atihau Incorporation, the Department of Conservation, Ruapehu District Council and Horizons.mw, this easy walking track winds along the banks of the Mangawhero River. It starts near State Highway 49 and ends at the bottom of the Ohakune Mountain Road at the Ohakune Junction. The walk takes in open areas as well as beech trees with pleasant views of the mountain and surrounding countryside. The group is working on restoring the river margins to their natural state, replanting native species to bring back the native birds such as tui, bellbird and fantail.
