Introduction to Kiwi North

Kiwi North is set on 25 hectares of rolling, volcanic farmland, forest and bush, with views that overlook the city of Whangarei and the Whangarei Heads. The site features a museum, a nocturnal kiwi house and gift store, and unique Victorian heritage buildings. Pack a picnic and explore this unique site. Ice creams, cold drinks and packaged snacks are available at visitor reception; campervan sites are also available.

Family-friendly Live Days are our specialty – the Heritage Park Clubs open their doors to the public revealing displays of vintage farm machinery, stationary engines, and vintage cars. Novelty rides include miniature and full-sized trains, bullocks, miniature ponies and vintage tractors.

Food stalls, face painting and an eclectic mix of Edwardian games provide that festive flavour – so why not dress up in character and join in Kiwi North’s next Live Day fun.
