Ohakune walks
There are many wonderful walks in National Park that can be accessed from Ohakune.
The short walk to Waitonga Falls is a family favourite. While it's not suitable for pushchairs, younger children will enjoy the swing bridge and crossing the wetlands on a board walk. On a good day, the views of Mount Ruapehu are spectacular. The walk starts 11km up the Ohakune Mountain Road.
Visit the Department of Conservation visitor centre at 1 Mountain Road, Ohakune for more information about walking tracks in the Ohakune area.
