Manawatū-Whanganui tour packages cover the central North Island, where Tongariro National Park, a dual UNESCO World Heritage Site for nature and Māori culture, contains three volcanoes, including Mount Ruapehu and the peak used as ‘Mount Doom’ in The Lord of the Rings. The Tongariro Alpine Crossing is among the country’s finest day walks. Further south, the Whanganui River offers paddling and heritage, and Palmerston North is a quiet university city. Winter brings skiing on Ruapehu, while summer suits hiking.

December to March is best for hiking Tongariro, while June to September is ski season on Mount Ruapehu. Weather in the mountains changes quickly.
Two days cover Tongariro National Park. Add a night in Whanganui for the river and old town.
The park is roughly four to five hours by road from Auckland and about the same from Wellington. Many travellers drive via Rotorua or Taupō.
