Kaweka Forest Park, Forest park in Hawke's Bay Region, New Zealand.
Kaweka Forest Park extends across 59,425 hectares of diverse terrain, containing alpine shrublands, tussock valleys, and multiple beech forest sections.
The park territory transformed from farmland in the 1800s to State Forest in the 1960s, receiving official Forest Park designation in 1972.
The land holds significance for Māori heritage, with multiple historical sites including Iron Whare, Manson Hut, and Robson's Lodge remaining accessible.
Visitors can enter through multiple access points including Comet Road, Kaweka Road, and Makahu Road, each leading to different sections of the park.
The Mangatutu Hot Springs sit near the Mohaka River, where ten native freshwater fish species swim in waters beneath the 1,724-meter Kaweka peak.
