The town of Inglewood is well positioned as a provisioning base for expeditions into Egmont National Park/Te Papakura o Taranaki. As well as a range of essential shops, the town has some unique places of interest: the Fun Ho! Toy Museum for a walk down toy memory lane, Stoney Oaks Wildlife Park for a hands-on ultimate animal experience, or stop in at the Purangi Experience visitor centre to find out what is happening to protect kiwi as part of the kiwi protection programme or grab a souvenir or gift.

For a pleasant picnic, find Everett Park Scenic Reserve just northeast of Inglewood - it has swimming holes and a glow worm cave in a native forest setting.
