Te Korowai o Wainuiārua is a grouping of Māori hapū in the northern Manawatū-Whanganui region of New Zealand. It was formed in 2014 to represent the large natural group (hapū with a common ancestry and from the same geographical area) of the middle Whanganui River area. It is made up of the Tamahaki, Tamakana and Uenuku ki Manganui-a-te-Ao, nā Tukaihoro hapū. Its area of interest covers some 6,130 km (2,370 sq mi), including central and upper parts of the Whanganui River, Whanganui National Park, Tongariro National Park, Raetihi and National Park. A Treaty settlement signed at Raetihi Marae on 29 July 2023 included an apology, $28.5m of compensation, return of forestry land at Erua, the former Waikune prison, support to create a predator-proofed sanctuary at Pōkākā and a seat on Tongariro-Taupō Conservation Board.
