The Te Aroha Region

Landscape...

Visit Te Aroha to experience our naturally hot soda spas and warm leisure pools set among the green tree ferns of Mount Te Aroha. Our magnificent mountain is an ever changing backdrop to a historic and vibrant spa town through which the Waihou River winds its way out to the Firth of Thames.

History...

Discover Te Aroha’s rich history  when ‘taking the waters’ was a fashionable pastime and a cure for everything. Be transported back in time to the gold mining days of Waiorongomai Valley  where fortunes were made and lost, where you can still follow old miners’ trails and discover relics of the gold rush days.

Relax...

After a day walking or biking the hills, following the arts trail or simply relaxing, come back to our relaxed Holiday Park.  Look back at the mountain you just climbed while sitting in our own mineral water rockpool - or book yourself to the Te Aroha Spa for a massage or treatment.

However you spend your time in our town you will be assured of great Te Aroha hospitality.
