Vườn quốc gia Egmont tọa lạc tại phía nam của New Plymouth, gần bờ biển Tây của Đảo Bắc của New Zealand. Vườn quốc gia này được thành lập năm 1900, phần lớn là núi lửa ngủ yên của Núi Taranaki. Vườn quốc gia này nhận được lượng mưa hàng năm dồi dào which is essentially orographic in origin as moist westerlies moving inland from the Tasman hit mount Taranaki and the adjacent Pouakai and Kaitake ranges and are thus forced to rise. Since the area has high annual rainfall and mild coastal climate there là một lush rainforest covering the foothills- this forest is nationally significant for the total absence of beech trees.
Rather, a rich Rata/Rimu/Broadleaf forest is present, although the entire park ecosystem displays distinct patterns of vegetative zonation- the former 2 large species of tree are common at lower elevations whereas Kamahi tends to dominate the stunted high altitude forest. The character of the plant communities continues to change with increasing altitude, to subalpine and alpine shrublands at high elevations, which are in stark contrast to the surrounding pasture farmlands.
