Covering 212,675 hectares, Te Urewera National Park was established in 1954. It is the fourth largest national park in New Zealand. It is famous for its lakes, hikes and caves, and known mainly for the Great Walk around Lake Waikaremoana. Its territory is said to have been occupied by Ngāti Tuhoe, who took refuge in the forest during European settlement. It later served as a hideout for Te Kooti's guerrilla rebels in 1868, until the 1880s. Like King Country, another hotbed of Māori resistance, this area was off limits to Europeans until 1896, when it became a national reserve
