Fancy a dip in natural hot springs for therapy or relaxation? Here’s where to go in beautiful Taupō.
Taupō boasts more thermally heated hot pools and hot springs than almost any other region in New Zealand.
A go-to destination for locals, Taupō DeBretts Hot Springs features warm indoor and outdoor pools that make for great family fun. Looking to indulge just a little? Then treat yourself to the full massage and spa facilities.
If you're looking for a thermal soak and massage in a quiet setting, stop by Wairakei Terraces. They have a stunning outdoor area complete with rockpools and waterfalls for everyone 14 and over.
Want to explore some of the region’s thermal pools without paying a cent? Head to the Lake Terrrace or Spa Park Hot Pools(opens in new window). Spa Park is where the Otumuheke Stream (hot river) merges with the mighty Waikato River. The higher you go, the hotter the pools get.
