Raumai Reserve is a tucked-away riverside campsite on the Pohangina River in the Manawatu-Whanganui region. It sits just off the Manawatu Scenic Route, not too far from Takapari Road or North Range Road, making it a handy base if you're exploring the surrounding ranges and back roads.

It's a well-liked little spot, especially good in summer when the river makes for a relaxing place to park up. Head down onto the river itself to find the best of it - the campervan camping area up top is a little average by comparison, so it pays to make your way down for the better setting.

Facilities are basic, with toilets on site. Sandflies can be about, so bring some bug spray to make your stay more comfortable.
