Gwawas Settlement is situated on the Kereru-Waipawa
Road, the nearest part of the estate being about a mile and a
half from Tikokino, and about fourteen miles from Waipawa
Railway-station, by a good metalled road. All the sections
are accessible by motor-car.
The settlement consists mostly of easy ridges, portions of
which are ploughable, and small flats. Sections 8 and 9,
Block XII, Wakarara Survey District, and Sections 43, 44,
and 45, Maraekakaho Survey District, are all flat terrace
land, nearly all ploughable. The soil is light, but is in fair
pasture at present, and will grow good root crops when
cultivated.
The altitude ranges from 800 ft. to 1,600 ft. above sea-
level; there is permanent water on most of the sections,
and it can be obtained by sinking in the stream-beds if neces-
sary. There is a little fencing-timber on Sections 3, 5, 6,
and 7.
