Named for nearby Tongariro National Park, this tiny outpost lies at the junction of SH4 and SH47, 15km from the hub of Whakapapa Village. In ski season the township is packed, but in summer it’s sleepy – despite being a great base for activities in and around the park.

Daily shuttles leave from here to the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and Whakapapa Village in summer, and the ski area in winter. If you can’t decide between two ski fields, it’s only a short drive further on to Ohakune and nearby Turoa. It is also a base for other adventures, such as canoe trips on the Whanganui River.
