Horopito is situated on the North Island Main Trunk Railway, about 207 miles from Wellington and 219 miles from Auckland, and lies on the main Waimarino-Waioru Road, about twenty miles from Raurimu and seven miles north of Ohakune. A metalled road leads to Raetihi, about eight miles distant. It is surrounded by a large bush of milling-timber, and the country to the west is being gradually opened up for settlement. The sections have been felled and grassed, and comprise for the most part flat land, with light soil, principally on grit formation; some are wet in places. The town contains a post-office, school, and store.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor, this fifteenth day of September, one thousand nine hundred and eight.
