Mangaotaki, Waikato
If you’re after a life less ordinary, Mangaotaki in the Waikato is hard to beat. Tucked away in the heart of the Waikato region, it offers a stunning blend of natural beauty, with spectacular limestone formations and lush greenery that make for a truly special backdrop to everyday life. The valley is home to Hairy Feet Waitomo — the actual filming location for Trollshaw Forest in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey — so you’d essentially be living in Middle-earth. Right on your doorstep are dog-friendly trails, waterfalls, fishing, and free walks through pristine nature, including the gorgeous Waitanguru Falls. If you crave peace, wide open spaces, and a genuine connection to the land without straying too far from civilisation, Mangaotaki offers a rare kind of quiet magic that’s becoming increasingly hard to find in New Zealand
