All About Us

The Tangihua Lions Lodge is a camp facility designed as an outdoor Education Center for schools and other organisations.

The Lodge is located in the heart of the Tangihua Ranges, an area of native forest overseen by the Department of Conservation.

The Whangarei Mid-Western Lions Club built the Lodge so that generations of students can experience and learn about Northland’s unique native forests.

By providing affordable accommodation and outdoor education facilities it has become a popular destination for school camps in Northland, with over 15,000 guests since its inception.

The spacious, modern accommodation and outdoor facilities make it an ideal location for a wide range of activities for all age groups.

The Lodge is available for any
one to use

Uniquely situated in the beautiful native forest of the Tangihua Ranges, the Lodge is the perfect get-away for bush lovers.

We have two lodges

The main lodge has two bunk rooms that sleep a total of 50 people.  The smaller lodge sleeps 7 and gives people their own space away from the main group.  With the addition of a few tents on the grassed areas, the lodge can easily accommodate 80 people.

The dinning room area can fit 80 people, and the commercial grade kitchen has everything you need to feed them all.

There are a wide range of bush type activities. The Lodge is an ideal start point for tramping or just take time out in the remote native bush environment. For more information about the Lodge and activities available visit Staying Here or click here for contact details.

Hiring the lodge directly benefits
our local schools

The Tangihua Lions Lodge Trust is a non profit organisation. We try to minimise costs for schools so as many students as possibly can use the facilities and we reinvest all income into the Lodge.

Hiring the Lodge helps ensure that future and present generations of students will have the opportunity to learn to respect, enjoy and help protect our natural environment. This is vital to the survival of our native forests and wildlife.
