All About Us
The Tangihua lions lodge is a school camp used as an outdoor Education Center for Schools and other organisations.
The Tangihua Lions Lodge is uniquely located in the heart of the Tangihua Ranges, a native conservation forest over seen by the Conservation Department.
The Whangarei Mid Western lions built the lodge so that generations of students will experience, learn about and respect our unique bush environment.
By providing affordable accommodation and outdoor education facilities it has become the number one destination for school camps in Northland with over 15,000 guests since its inception.
The spacious, modern accommodation and outdoor activities make it an ideal location for a wide range of activities for all age groups.

Reviews
Schools – Education and training in the bush – School camps, From Auckland to Kaitaia, primary to secondary. We have a wide range of schools and public groups that use the facility.
We have had a wonderful family weekend at Tangihua Lodge. The complex met our needs perfectly; we were a group of 31 with ages ranging from 6 to 75 years. Although the activities for children needed active adult supervision, everyone thoroughly enjoyed, and rose to, the challenges. A great camp for those who enjoy the outdoors. We also climbed Tutamoe from there.

Ngā mihi nui for all of your help and time put in to our wonderful stay at The Tangihua Lions Lodge! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The facilities and environment exceeded our expectations and we felt as though our ‘internal cups’ had been filled!
I will recommend this lodge to anyone who is looking for a wonderful, family friendly place to re-charge and reconnect!
