Otorohanga Giant Kiwi

Otorohanga Giant Kiwi

The Otorohanga Giant Kiwi is a well-known landmark located in the town of Otorohanga, often referred to as the “Kiwiana capital of New Zealand.” This large sculpture stands proudly at the entrance of Otorohanga Kiwi House, a wildlife sanctuary dedicated to New Zealand’s iconic bird, the kiwi.

The giant kiwi statue is a popular spot for visitors to snap photos and marks the town’s strong connection to New Zealand's cultural heritage, or "Kiwiana," which includes symbols like the kiwi bird, jandals, and pavlova. The Otorohanga Kiwi House itself offers visitors the opportunity to see native birds, tuataras, and other wildlife, making it a must-visit spot in Otorohanga.
