About this video:

Today we are following local recommendations to check out the Wanganui Riverside Market before heading off to the beautiful Virginia Lake in Wanganui!

On the banks of the Whanganui River, we see what a traditional Kiwi farmers market looks like, full of crafts and food. We have a quick look around before heading to Virginia Lake Reserve in Wanganui with a series of walks around a lake. Virginia Lake is a stunning city park in Wanganui full of birds and plants. It’s an awesome way to spend the morning and stretch our legs before we hit the road to Ohakune.

We end our time in the city of Wanganui with the Virginia Lake then head straight to Ohakune on a road with waterfall lookouts and rolling hill scenery. We hope to either do some mountain biking or snowboarding tomorrow, so join us then!
