Piopio is a small rural service township in the King Country on State Highway 3, about 24km southwest of Te Kūiti and named after a native songbird now extinct. Laid out around 1902 to serve a dairy-farming district, its town-centre streets are all named for New Zealand birds, from Kākā and Kea to Tūī and Huia. The dramatic limestone of the nearby Mangaotaki Valley, including the Denize Bluffs used as Trollshaw Forest in The Hobbit, draws film fans and walkers a short drive from the Waitomo Caves.
