Patetonga Village is situated on the Hauraki Plains, at the junction of the Morrinsville-Waitakaruru and Waikaka Tramway Roads. The access is from Morrinsville Railway-station, twenty-four miles distant, by formed dray-road. The Waikaka Tramway leads to the Piako River, three miles away, where there is a wharf known as Patetonga Landing, which is twenty-three miles from Thames. Launches convey stores at regular intervals. There is also direct steamer communication with Auckland. At Patetonga there is a store and a post-office, which has telephonic communication with Thames over a private line. A site for a creamery has been laid off within the village.
In the immediate vicinity several thousands of acres of partly drained swamp land have been thrown open for selection during the past three years. In addition Patetonga provides an outlet for numerous settlers in the hill country in the vicinity. The land is undulating, intersected by a small swamp in the western portion of Blocks V and VI, which has been drained. Practically all has been laid down in English grasses.
