The Hautapu River is a river in the Manawatū-Whanganui region of New Zealand. It originates east of the Ngamatea Swamp in the New Zealand Army's Waiouru Training area. From here it flows south, through private farmland, and in some places following State Highway 1, for several kilometres before entering the Rangitīkei River south of Taihape.
