Morrinsville is a provincial town inside the Waikato region of New Zealand's North Island, with a populace of approximately 7,000 within the 2013 Census. The town is placed at the northern base of the Pakaroa Range, and on the south-western fringe of the Hauraki Plains. Morrinsville is round 33 kilometres east of Hamilton and 22 kilometres west of Te Aroha. The town is bordered by means of the Piako River to the east and the Waitakaruru Stream to the south. Prior to European settlement of New Zealand, the hills around present-day Morrinsville were occupied through the Ngati Werewere Maori human beings of the Ngati Haua Iwi, and the website online of the existing-day metropolis changed into on or close to to an vintage Maori route among the upper WaihouaPiako basin and the Ngaruawahia area.

Following European settlement, some early European investors are believed to have traversed this direction prior to 1834 whilst the Rev. J. Morgan travelled up the Piako River to near the destiny city site and crossed west to Horotiu, near Ngaruawahia. First recorded contact with European settlers occurred around 1850, with John Johnson trading with the Māori from 1852.
