Dannevirke · Dannevirke

Dannevirke was carved out of the Seventy Mile Bush by Danish settlers in 1872, and the name means the Danes' work. A Viking on the town signs still nods to that heritage, while the main street serves sheep and beef country running up to the Ruahine Range. The town is the largest in the Tararua district, on the highway route between the Manawatū and Hawke's Bay.
