Today we are doing it all in Palmerston North. We have an action-packed day in Palmerston North so let’s begin!

First we hire some electric bikes from the Palmerston North i-SITE to explore Palmerston North. We do the Manawatu River Pathway which is an awesome little trail along the Manawatu River. Biking the Manawatu River Pathway is a great way to see Palmerston North and a great thing to do in Palmerston North.

We cycle back into the city centre where we visit the New Zealand Rugby Museum. The New Zealand Rugby Museum goes through the history of rugby in New Zealand and talks about all things the All Blacks. The New Zealand Rugby Museum is an absolute must-do in Palmerston North for any rugby fan.

Finally, we arrive back at The Square in Palmerston North and get ready for tonight’s activities. First up, we check out the Village Night Market in the Palmerston North Library. After seeing the Village Night Market in Palmerston North, we get some food at the Palmerston North Food Truck Feast in teh The Square with all sorts of international flavours and live music.

After an action-packed day in Palmerston North doing as many things to do in Palmerston North as possible, we relax in our awesome budget accommodation The Railway Hotel Backpackers.
