Te Urewera National Park is the fourth largest national park in New Zealand, and the largest in the North Island, covering 212,673 hectares. The park is unique in that it contains the full complement of North Island native forest birds apart from weka. The Te Urewera Mainland Island (TUMI), was implemented in the northern end of the park in 1996.
