Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Totara River?
The best area to stay in Totara River is the main village, which offers the most convenient access to amenities and activities.

The village itself is compact and situated along the Totara River, with the main street, River Road, running parallel to the water. Here you'll find the majority of the local shops, cafes, and restaurants. The Totara River Bridge is a prominent landmark, connecting the two sides of the village. The village is also the primary departure point for many of the area's popular outdoor excursions.

Couples looking for a relaxing yet adventurous break will find the village an excellent base. From here, you're just a short walk from scenic river walks and can easily arrange guided fishing trips or kayaking adventures on the river. The local eateries provide a pleasant setting for evening meals after a day of exploring.

For solo travellers, the village offers a comfortable and practical option. Its central location means you can easily join organised tours or find fellow travellers for activities without needing extensive transportation.
When is the best time to go to Totara River?
The best time to go to Totara River is during the summer and autumn months, from December to April, when the weather is generally warmer and drier.

For couples looking to explore the natural beauty and enjoy outdoor activities, these months offer the most pleasant conditions. You'll find the river calmer for kayaking or paddleboarding, and the hiking trails through the surrounding native bush are more accessible. The longer daylight hours also mean more time to appreciate the stunning scenery.

Families travelling with children will also find this period ideal. The warmer temperatures are superb for swimming in the river or spending leisurely afternoons by the water.
