Bring up the subject of aviation in Temuka and
you’ll quickly have an interesting conversation
on your hands. This town was the home of Richard
Pearse, who raced the Wright Brothers to become
the first man to fly. In 1902 Pearse flew his
home-built machine for a short distance before
landing ungracefully on a gorse hedge. While in
Temuka you can visit the Richard Pearse memorial.
Other local attractions include the pottery shop
(Temuka is a centre for stoneware production)
and a fruit winery. Fishing is big here. The main
target is quinnat salmon (November to April).

Approx. population 4000, visitor centre, good
range of shops and services.
