Pohangina is a scattered rural community in the Manawatū, lying just north of Ashhurst along the foot of the Ruahine Range where the Pohangina River runs down to meet the Manawatū. Māori trapped eels and birds in the valley, settling mainly near the river junction at Ashhurst, while European settlement pushed up the valley from the late 1870s as sawmillers advanced ahead of the farmers. The mills peaked around 1906, and today the green Pohangina valley is prized for its quiet back roads, the regional park and the Ruahine on its doorstep.
