Ngongotahā

Ngongotahā is a small settlement on the western shores of Lake Rotorua in the North Island of New Zealand.

The original track was cut on Jubilee Day, marking 50 years since the arrival of Captain William Hobson at Waitangi.

Wingspan undertakes conservation, education and research activities related to birds of prey found in New Zealand, and provides demonstrations of falconry.

The main road through the village, known as SH 36, runs via Kaharoa and Pyes Pa to Tauranga.
