The Tiaki Promise

We are delighted that you're choosing to experience the Legendary Mackenzie and to discover what makes it so very special to us.

The uniqueness of the landscape, the resilience of its people and the way it gets into your soul is why we support the Tiaki Promise.

In New Zealand we welcome manuhiri (guests) in the spirit of manaakitanga (respect, kindness and hospitality). Hear our call. Feel welcome.

We also present our visitors with a wero (challenge). This wero is a challenge and commitment to care for New Zealand. This wero is the Tiaki promise.

We encourage all visitors to pick up this wero. To follow the Tiaki Promise. To act as a guardian, protecting and preserving our home.

Please help us keep the lakes and the mountains of the Mackenzie beautiful and safe for all to enjoy.
