Waihi Village, also known as Little Waihi, is a small Māori community of around 25 households on the southwestern shores of Lake Taupo seven kilometres northwest of Turangi, New Zealand. It has been the site of three major landslides, in 1910, 1846 and around 1780, which killed over 200 people in total. The landslides flowed down the Waimatai Stream from their source above the village in the Hipaua Steaming Cliffs geothermal area. The village's Catholic Church of Saint Werenfried featured on a 40 cent Christmas stamp in 2002. Waihi Village is part of the Lake Taupo Bays statistical area.
