General Description.
Pipiriki Township is situated on the proper left bank of the Wanganui River, about fifty-six miles from the Town of Wanganui, and comprises generally open, scrub, forest, flat, undulating and hilly land, intersected by several gullies and small streams. The open land is interspersed with patches of fern and manuka scrub; the forest comprises tawa, pukatea, rata, hinau, rimu, &c., and tawhero on the ridges. The elevation ranges from about 110 ft. to about 700 ft. above sea-level. The soil is generally good, and grows garden and farm produce freely. Its capabilities for the production of the grape, peach, cape-gooseberry, pear, apple, quince, and other fruits are well known, and are due in great measure to the low elevation, the mild climate, and the sunny aspect of the township-site.
Pipiriki is at present the key to the up-river country, being the present inland terminus of Messrs. Hattrick and Co.'s Wanganui River steamboat-service, and the point of junction with the coach-services connecting with Taupo and Rotorua on the north, Napier on the east, and Hunterville and Rangitikei on the south-east, and it is possible that it will ultimately be connected by road with Taranaki. The Government has, where practicable, reserved the banks of the Wanganui River, and also the adjacent country, with the object of conserving for all time the beautiful and unrivalled scenery which is already of world-wide fame. Large numbers of tourists travel annually by way of Pipiriki, both from the north and the south.
Pipiriki Township is the present inlet and outlet to the Waimarino and Muri-motu country as far east as Ohakune, and also the starting-point for visitors by canoe to Manganui-o-te-ao and the upper reaches of the Wanganui River, and the resting-place of those on the downward journey. These with other considerations indicate that the township will develop into a place of some commercial importance, and that, owing to its genial and healthy climate and many attractions, it will become yearly more popular as a place of resort.
