[Ohakune]
In the County of Wanganui, eighty-four miles from Wanganui and sixty-one miles from Ohingaiti—the nearest railway station and telephone office—Ohakune is on the road from Pipiriki to Tokaanu and the Hot Lakes District. Tourists are taking advantage largely of the facilities afforded by the river-steamers from Wanganui to Pipiriki to enjoy the lovely scenery of the “Rhine of New Zealand.” Mails are received and made up twice each week.
