Taumarunui Holiday Park
Do it ALL from here!
Nau mai haere mai - Welcome!
Welcome to our Park! We are a small and friendly Park, ideally located right beside the Whanganui River and bordered by 23ha of primary bush. We offer powered and non-powered sites set amongst plenty of mature trees for shade and shelter, standard cabins that are all less than 25m from the shared toilets, showers and kitchen and our most popular accommodation, our self-contained Kiwi Cottage.
You really can do it ALL from here - located in the heart of the spectacular Central Plateau, Taumarunui Holiday Park is the ideal base for all the many activities this largely untamed wilderness offers:
Start/end point of the renowned Forgotten World Highway; ride the rails with Forgotten World Adventures Rail Carts; canoe/kayak the mighty Whanganui River on our waka (canoes); walk the must-do Tongariro Crossing and lots of other great walks; fish in some of the world’s best freshwater fishing spots; cycle through the ancient forests of the Timber Trail; mountain and motor biking on the 42nd traverse; only 40mins from Tongariro National Park and the Whakapapa Snowfield; and much, much more ......
We are in the centre of an outdoor, all-seasons adventure playground!
Pet Friendly
And we're pet friendly. We know it's hard to leave your family pets behind - which is why we don't mind if you bring them with you! Please click here though for things you should consider before bringing your pet with you.

Stayed 2 nights 31st 2023 - 1st 2025 cost us $20 each unpowered site, very nice campsite toilets cleaned daily showers clean right next to the river where our dog went swimming and we did some fishing
and caught nothing lol but good to have a try - kids swim in the river kayak etc.beautiful bush walks there was a play ground kitchen bbq area and a facilties room with fridge freezer power points for charging your phones and free wifi.

Despite booking and paying $50 online for a powered site x 2 pac we arrived just after 5.30 to find office closed, no envelope with instructions.
Admittedly there had been a lot of rain recently so the grass sites were soggy and we were concerned we might get bogged over night. The two men’s and ladies toilets are in seperate blocks to the showers, both very basic and need updating. The kitchen although a reasonable size and had enough cooking tops and sinks had no power points to charge phones etc and a hot water tank was in place for hot water. Also be prepared for an interrupted night as close to the highway.
Our opinion was that due to the location and a captive audience with no other place around to stay after a long days drive the price was too high for the quality of facilities being so poor.
If desperate stay, if you have time, drive on.

Campsite should be updated, seems old fashioned.
Male shower was not working. Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a while. No soap in bathroom or kitchen.
Campsite is next to highway and (active) railway, so earplugs are advisable.

The site was not cleaned, the lady shower had a drain blocked, in the general not maintened at all.
The reception was closed we don’t Knowles if there was a problem of staff or what the issue. It is shame as the site is along à Nice river and there are plenty of space.
It is a bit noisy as the road and the train Line are not fare awadhi.

Stayed for 2 nights in powered site in our caravan.
Plenty of sites, basically a big open area. Toilets (men’s and ladies) basic but useable. Two showers in separate room. Didn’t use kitchen as we cooked by our van. Close to river with popular swimming hole. Had extra flush toilets there for swimmers which was handy. We camped under huge trees at the end for their shade. Also next to bush area with marked tracks throughout for short walks. Great for dogs.
Picnic tables scattered around campsite,
In all, basic place but enjoyed it because it was simple and quiet.
Paid $40 for 2 pax powered site.

ANSWER THE PHONE or have common Courtesy to update website or contact for check ins, after the long travel our family done, and with this time of year, we waited an hour, phoned 9 times sent texts, tended
to our 2 young children in the car which we had to leave on for heating as it was wet and cold, all cabins had keys people whom seemed they were there were very secluded and payed no attention to coming and going vehicles. Homeless would call this place a haven during cold night's. The disappointing 😕 part is i grew up around this camping ground, and even in the winter seasons never have I seen this place so gloomy and grim. To think 🤔 our family have shares in this land where it now looks and feels Deserted & Isolated. Bring the life back, I'd be keen to take on that opportunity. Honestly can not recommend this as a warm inviting lovely family friendly environment to stay at. Kotahi Whanau Tū Mai Maori Tangata.

Older facilities but relatively tidy.
$18 seemed a bit steep for a (slightly muddy) bit of grass and just an overnight unpowered stay.

Nice place, feelings are 50:50 though..
To call it campground yes, its cool, old fashioned, just two old showers and WC for each genre, then basic pretty nice kitchen with usefull equimpent, very nice outside dinnig area, grassy area for tents..but holiday park no no.. would not call it like that and for the price 18pp, unpowered tent.

+ Very friendly and helpful owners.
We came back another night after the refered 3-day-canoe-trip (we were exhausted). We slept-in/check out really late without a problem. Hot (strong) clean showers and very clean (real) toilets. Big kitchen, gas-bbq, and plenty of picknicktables. Washer and dryer made my dirty laundry happy within no time! Right besides the start of the Wanganui river (swimarea). Site is right outside town (great pies at the Taumaruni Bakery).
- Drinkingwater (bad muddy taste, both days)
- Long train in the middle of the night right next to campsite (earplugs :)

Great little place.
Picnic table to use beside campervan. Right by river and a walk nearby which had it not been pouring with rain we would have run down in the morning. Facilities great, everything you need and a fantastic herb and vegetable garden to help yourself too. Staff friendly as well.

Fantastic.
Stunning view, beautiful camp grounds, $36 for 2 people unpowered site, but with access to what seemed like newly renovated facilities, the lady at check in was very friendly, and had even offered to drive my missus and I into town to pick up some drinks/snacks as our camper was already set up for bedding, after she had finished her shift for the day, and brought us back, 10/10 for service for sure.

Very friendly people.
Facilities clean. Good kitchen and barbecue place, but we could not use it because of heavy rain.

to our 2 young children in the car which we had to leave on for heating as it was wet and cold, all cabins had keys people whom seemed they were there were very secluded and payed no attention to coming and going vehicles. Homeless would call this place a haven during cold night's. The disappointing 😕 part is i grew up around this camping ground, and even in the winter seasons never have I seen this place so gloomy and grim. To think 🤔 our family have shares in this land where it now looks and feels Deserted & Isolated. Bring the life back, I'd be keen to take on that opportunity. Honestly can not recommend this as a warm inviting lovely family friendly environment to stay at. Kotahi Whanau Tū Mai Maori Tangata.

Campsite should be updated, seems old fashioned.
Male shower was not working. Looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a while. No soap in bathroom or kitchen.
Campsite is next to highway and (active) railway, so earplugs are advisable.

A basic old campground like they used to be.
Ok except that there’s several ‘permanents’ living there who don’t tidy up after themselves. Otherwise ok

Stayed for 2 nights in powered site in our caravan.
Plenty of sites, basically a big open area. Toilets (men’s and ladies) basic but useable. Two showers in separate room. Didn’t use kitchen as we cooked by our van. Close to river with popular swimming hole. Had extra flush toilets there for swimmers which was handy. We camped under huge trees at the end for their shade. Also next to bush area with marked tracks throughout for short walks. Great for dogs.
Picnic tables scattered around campsite,
In all, basic place but enjoyed it because it was simple and quiet.
Paid $40 for 2 pax powered site.

Older facilities but relatively tidy.
$18 seemed a bit steep for a (slightly muddy) bit of grass and just an overnight unpowered stay.

Stopped here on the night through to Auckland.
Was a bit unimpressed. Facilities could do with a tidy up and couldn't get the stove tops to work so cooked in my van.

Nice place, feelings are 50:50 though..
To call it campground yes, its cool, old fashioned, just two old showers and WC for each genre, then basic pretty nice kitchen with usefull equimpent, very nice outside dinnig area, grassy area for tents..but holiday park no no.. would not call it like that and for the price 18pp, unpowered tent.

+ Very friendly and helpful owners.
We came back another night after the refered 3-day-canoe-trip (we were exhausted). We slept-in/check out really late without a problem. Hot (strong) clean showers and very clean (real) toilets. Big kitchen, gas-bbq, and plenty of picknicktables. Washer and dryer made my dirty laundry happy within no time! Right besides the start of the Wanganui river (swimarea). Site is right outside town (great pies at the Taumaruni Bakery).
- Drinkingwater (bad muddy taste, both days)
- Long train in the middle of the night right next to campsite (earplugs :)

Had high expectations but this site is not for us.
Only stayed one night not sure how it got there but there was mud on both showers and in the sink. I know that probably the campers did this but off putting. Might also have been different if there wasn’t a party of schoolboys there (at least 20) who took over and it was pouring with rain. Well not be staying there again sorry.

Great little place.
Picnic table to use beside campervan. Right by river and a walk nearby which had it not been pouring with rain we would have run down in the morning. Facilities great, everything you need and a fantastic herb and vegetable garden to help yourself too. Staff friendly as well.

Fantastic.
Stunning view, beautiful camp grounds, $36 for 2 people unpowered site, but with access to what seemed like newly renovated facilities, the lady at check in was very friendly, and had even offered to drive my missus and I into town to pick up some drinks/snacks as our camper was already set up for bedding, after she had finished her shift for the day, and brought us back, 10/10 for service for sure.

Ideal stop over with everything I needed on the way to Wellington for Lion's Tour.
Facilities clean and tidy, nice bush walk, most unassuming place so far. Thanks to the local RSA club for their hospitality Hurricanes v Lions match invite.
