Otorohanga District Council vision. p7 A Candidate’s Guide to the Otorohanga District | 2 Background Aotea The Otorohanga District is part of the King Country region, known by Māori as ‘Te Rohe Potae’ - “The Area of the Hat.” It extends along the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island from Mount Pirongia in the north to the coastal town of Kawhia in the south and stretches inland to Pureora Forest Park and the Waikato River. The Otorohanga District is located 50 kilometres south of Hamilton. The area governed by the Council covers 1976 square kilometres and extends from the Kawhia and Aotea Harbours on the west coast for a distance of 90 km to the eastern extremity on the Waikato River near Mangakino. Included within the District are the urban communities of Otorohanga, Kawhia and Aotea. The eastern and western areas have predominantly more hills than the central area, which forms the southern limit of the Waikato Basin. Otorohanga is centrally placed, being within an easy driving distance of Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, Rotorua, Taupo and New Plymouth. The local economy is primarily based on agriculture, with sheep, beef and dairy farming being the principle activities. The town has a population of approximately 3000 and is a service centre for the surrounding rural areas. Otorohanga is the closest town to the world-famous glow worm caves at Waitomo, which generate significant tourist traffic.
