Playground

Right in the middle of Te Araroa, just a stone’s throw from the Eastern Foursquare, this spot is one of those places the community actually uses rather than just drives past. It’s accessible, which matters out here where options are limited. If you’re passing through on the East Coast road trip and need a break near the famous Te Waha O Rerekohu pōhutukawa, this is a handy stop to stretch the legs and let the kids loose for a bit.
