4WD Tracks in Taranaki

Dominated by the perfect cone of Mount Taranaki, this region blends volcanic ring-plain farmland with the rugged, forested backcountry of the eastern hill country. The 4WD tracks here range from quiet rural roads to remote valley routes around Whangamomona and the Tangahoe, threading through bush, river crossings, and rolling pasture. Expect changeable weather and varied terrain on every drive.
