It lies 59.5 km east of Palmerston North (from Palmerston North: bearing 95°T), and is situated 28.2 km south-east of Dannevirke. The air, carrying the faint scent of turned soil and distant livestock, hums with the quiet industry of the countryside.

The Waewaepa Range, a low, undulating presence, forms the distant backdrop, its contours softened by the distance and the ever-present haze of a fine day.

The history of Weber is etched into the quiet lanes and the sturdy farm buildings, a testament to the resilience and hard work of those who have called this inland locality home, fostering a sense of quiet community that endures.

About This Weber Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Weber, Manawatu-Whanganui, New Zealand at coordinates -40.40157, 176.31117. Use the Map and Satellite buttons to switch views, the plus and minus buttons to zoom, and Fullscreen to fill the screen.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map with four things the embedded map cannot do. It searches OpenStreetMap for any New Zealand town, suburb or landmark by name. It offers LINZ topographic maps as a base layer — the official Topo250 and Topo50 sheets, switching scale automatically as you zoom, and the standard reference for tramping, hunting and back-country travel. It offers LINZ aerial imagery down to 5cm resolution in urban areas. And it can take a single GPS fix from your device and report your position as both an NZTM2000 grid reference and plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what New Zealand search and rescue services work from. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map itself cannot load.
