The Tararua Range is one of several mountain ranges in the North Island of New Zealand which form a ridge running parallel with the east coast of the island between Eastland and Wellington.
The ridge is at its highest in the southern part of the island, where it comprises the Rimutaka, Ruahine, and Tararua Ranges.
The Tararuas run northeast-southwest for 80 kilometres from near Palmerston North to the upper reaches of the Hutt Valley, where the northern tip of the Rimutaka Range begins. It is separated in the north from the southern end of the Ruahine Range by the Manawatu Gorge. The highest peak in the Tararuas is Mitre (not to be confused with Mitre Peak), at 1570 metres.
