Dannevirke is proud to be part of Hawkes Bay, equally so of its Scandinavian Heritage being settled by the Danish some 159 years ago.

Nestled between the Manawatu River and the majestic Ruahine Ranges, Dannevirke’s fertile countryside is the backbone of this vibrant Hawkes Bay town. Contrary to the urban myth that it’s always raining in Dannevirke, it’s
moderate rainfall is consistently less than Napier’s.

Being a little over an hour’s drive south of Hastings, Dannnevirke is fiercely independent boasting a wide range of facilities, parks, sporting and recreational facilities (which seldom are ever closed due to the weather),
a supportive business community with arguably the best selection of food outlets along State Highway II.

Dannevirke’s quiet relaxed lifestyle is well supported by a diverse and very affordable residential area of some 2500 homes. From the gracious villa’s of the late 1800’s, the stylish American influence of the Californian Bungalow to today’s contemporary designs including award winning homes. With an average sale price of around $150,000 Dannevirke is an appealing lifestyle choice.

The convenience and friendliness of a country town entices the elderly to retire in Dannevirke, and with its host of 248 clubs, cultural and sporting groups, there is always plenty to do.

For many new residents, Dannevirke provides an opportunity of real country living with a variety of lifestyle properties starting from around $120,000.

Dannevirke, by virtue of being a rural service town, has a strong economic base and employment opportunities particularly in the agricultural based industries for those who share the work ethics of the town’s Viking forefathers.

Some 6000 people are pleased to make Dannevirke their home. Enjoy the economic benefits, lifestyle opportunities and social attributes of a true kiwi town whilst still being part of the ‘Great Hawkes Bay’.
