The Hāwera Water Tower dominates the urban landscape and provides a central landmark and navigation point for visitors to the town. It is designated as a category one structure by the Historic Places Trust, and celebrated its 100th year in 2014.
Situated behind the South Taranaki isite Visitor Centre, take about 10 minutes to climb the (somewhat strenuous - but don't let that put you off) 215 steps of the best-known heritage building in Hāwera for a bird’s eye view of the region and coast.
The tower is currently closed to the public.
For more information contact the South Taranaki site Visitors Centre.
