Whanganui

North Island
Whanganui
  • In Te Reo Māori, "wh" is pronounced roughly like an "f." So, Whanganui is correctly pronounced more like "Fanganui." Some New Zealanders also pronounce "wh" as a "w," but this is incorrect and considered old fashioned.

  • Travelers with kids shouldn’t miss Kowhai Park, with amazing colorful climbing equipment and a water maze.

  • For a relaxed sightseeing trip, hop aboard the 19th-century paddle steamer Waimarie.

  • The Whanganui Journey hike is part of Te Araroa, a network of trekking trails that spans the length of New Zealand.
