Local attractions

Whether you’re here for hiking, skiing or adrenaline of some kind, it should be pretty easy to track down all three. For number one, cross over volcanoes with a day trek over the Tongariro Alpine Crossing (35 minutes’ drive). Number two’s sorted at Mount Ruapehu (an hour and 20 minutes) in the summer months. As for the latter – adrenaline activities – there are skydiving, bungee jumping, floatplane, whitewater rafting and jet boat ride experiences all within driving distance of the site. Sail, snorkel or swim around the Mine Bay Maori Rock Carvings (45 minutes). The Huka Falls (35 minutes) might raise your heartbeat a little too. If it’s a slower-paced day you’re after, golfing or trout fishing might feature on your itinerary. There are spas, hot pools and dining experiences around the townships, as well as cultural, art or historical venues like the Craters of the Moon (35 minutes), Lava Glass - Glassblowing Studio (35 minutes), Taupo Museum and Art Gallery (half an hour), Market Central Taupō (25 minutes) and Huka Prawn Park (35 minutes).
