Make a Day of It: Your Palmerston North Activity Guide
Mabel Vickers
Mabel Vickers on College Street in Palmerston North is a quietly creative little black shop offering pottery workshops, one-of-a-kind ceramics and thoughtful gifts.
Victoria Esplanade
Great cities around the world have at least one thing in common… they have preserved and prioritised green spaces.
Orlando Store
Orlando Store is only a hop, skip and jump from the edge of Palmerston North, overlooking the stunning Tararua ranges.
Te Āpiti Manawatū Gorge
For a breathtaking outdoor adventure, simply pop “State Highway Three - Manawatū Gorge” into your map app and complete the quick 20 minute drive from downtown Palmerston North. Nestled between mountains and carved by geological forces over the last three million years, Te Āpiti is a natural time capsule.
Wildbase Recovery
Massey University’s Wildbase Hospital is a place where you can observe New Zealand’s unique native species and learn more about the hard work that goes into looking after them.
He Ara Kotahi Bridge & Pathway
Get some fresh air at He Ara Kotahi bridge and walkway. The name means ‘a pathway that brings people together’, but you’ll find that this outdoor space does much more than that.
