Located in the central north of New Zealand, Taupo is situated on the shores of a large lake. Lake Taupo District is an area of considerable beauty and diversity, offering a wide range of activities, adventure, and scenic opportunities.
Water is the primary focus with trout fishing, boating, water skiing, and swimming in Lake Taupo and several smaller lakes. At the southern end of the lake is the mountains of Tongariro National Park and the Kaimanawas and Pureroa Forest Parks with activities such as hiking, skiing, and hunting. Many other reserves provide opportunities to walk, picnic, and view thermal attractions or engage in more adventurous activities such as bungy jumping, white water rafting, and jet boating on the Huka River before the world famous Huka Falls.
For those who look for a less strenuous activity, Taupo has many top quality golf courses, or you may choose a cruise on the lake.
Whatever you desire, Lake Taupo offers an experience to be remembered.
