Sitting at the centre of the North Island, Lake Taupo has plenty for the adventurer; skydiving over its clear lake, catching a wild trout, bungy jumping, jet boating or quad biking are just a few options available.

Central North Island
If none of this is to your fancy, why not relax in one of the many cafes offering views across the lake to Mount Ruapehu, or, play a round on one of Taupo’s five golf courses.
Tongariro National Park is New Zealand’s first national park and a World heritage site. The area includes Mt Ruapehu, Mt Ngauruhoe, Mt Tongariro and the Tongariro Crossing. With the ability to ski, snowboard, climb, hike, whitewater raft or simply enjoy the stunning scenery, Tongariro is a place you need to put on your itinerary!
