Turangarere was a flag station on the North Island Main Trunk line, in the Ruapehu District of New Zealand, in the Hautapu River valley. It was 3.05 km (1.90 mi) south of Hīhītahi and 3.91 km (2.43 mi) north of Ngaurukehu. Turangarere is part way up a 1 in 70 gradient from Mataroa to Hīhītahi, so that it is 62 m (203 ft) above Ngaurukehu and 39 m (128 ft) below Hīhītahi. The station was on a horseshoe curve, formed to avoid an even steeper gradient, by adding about 1.5 mi (2.4 km) to the route. Only a single track now remains through the former station site.
