Kuripapango

Napier-Hastings

Kuripapango

As you exit the Kaweka Forest Park to the west, with Blowhard Bush behind you, Taihape Napier Road drops down into Kuripapango (where there are no services). This is a beautiful remote location, and there is a DOC campsite by the river, with access to hiking and tramping tracks into the Kaweka Range to the north.

From there, the road climbs steeply again through Gentle Annie to a plateau about 900 metres above sea level. This terrain is rugged with regenerating forest.
