Lake Taupo – Think
Fresh!
The Central North Island of New Zealand captures the diversity of scenery,
people and experiences that make this country famous. Here you will face some of
the world’s most incredible forces.
The Taupo region is full of contrasts offering you just about any outdoor
experience you could ask for within easy reach. Try adrenaline-pumping
water sports like rafting or kayaking, explore a valley of geysers, hot springs
and mud volcanoes, try your luck at catching some Rainbow or Brown Trout or
just sit back and relax while your skipper guides you through the bays of lake
Taupo.
The lake itself is a magnet for trout fishing enthusiasts and feeds the Waikato
River, which heads for the Tasman Sea in a series of spectacular waterfalls,
including the Huka Falls. It is the largest fresh water lake in Australasia and
was created by the largest known eruption of the past 5,000 years.

The Tongariro Crossing
Often described as the best one day walk in New
Zealand the Tongariro Crossing provides an
opportunity to experience some of the most scenic
volcanically active areas of New Zealand’s oldest
National Park.
The track runs through the Mangatepopo Valley to the
saddle between Tongariro and Ngauruhoe Mountains.
It climbs to Red Crater then drops down to the vivid
Emerald Lakes.
The landscape has a grandeur and strength of
presence that words can't express - you have to go
there to feel it. |
