Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland
Thousands of years in the making, visitors can choose one or all of three walks which take between 30 and 75 minutes.

Unique features include the world famous Champagne Pool naturally coloured springs, bubbling mud, steaming ground, expansive vistas, huge volcanic craters and sinter terrace formations.

The natural bush setting adds another dimension to the experience as does the Lady Knox Geyser which erupts daily at 10.15 am to heights of up to 20 meters. The modern Visitor Centre has a wide range of New Zealand souvenirs and a cafe which has internal and external dining areas.

Twenty minutes drive south of Rotorua - 40 minutes drive north of Taupo on State Highway 5.
