ENORMOUS GUMBOOT Taihape is proudly gumboot capital of the world. To celebrate this, they've planted an enormous corrugated iron gumboot, made by well-known Kiwi artist Jeff Thomson.

TAIHAPE ANNUAL GUMBOOT FESTIVAL Stand back for the number one event – the gumboot throwing championship. Taking place every March, there are a number of activities based around the humble rubber boot.

OUTBACK GUMBOOT THROWING LANE If you're not quite skilled enough for the gumboot throwing championship, fear not. This purpose-built gumboot-chucking facility has plenty of discarded boots for any novice to pick up and lob. Located on Outback Road, complete with coffee cart.

TAIHAPE MUSEUM Local history fills every corner of this small but charming heritage building. Open every Sunday from 11am-2pm.
