Huntly is the site of a massive coal-fired power
station. It is also a major source of coal –
the open cast coal mine produces around 10,000
tonnes a day. Coal was first discovered here in
1842 by a local reverend. In the 1860s, one of
the seams was opened up to provide coal for the
river boats using the Waikato River. At the town’s
coalfields museum you can learn about the history
of mining in the region, including the inevitable
disasters. Another side of Huntly can be enjoyed
at the Hakarimata Walkway, which features kauri
trees, streams and waterfalls. As a town on the
main highway, Huntly has a good choice of eating
places. There are several farmstays in the area.
Functional facts: Approx. population 6800, good
range of shops and services, limited accommodation.
