Lake Taupo is the result of a tremendous volcanic eruption in AD186. The Waikato River forms the
outflow for Lake Taupo, and water sports are major activities in the area. The lake is well stocked
with trout - licences can be obtained from the Department of Conservation or sporting goods stores.
Thermal areas are found nearby at Wairakei on the edge of Lake Taupo, and at the southern end of the
lake at Tokaanu. With three national parks, Ruapehu is a natural magnet for adventurous
travellers. The Volcanic Plateau of the central North Island includes the Tongariro National Park,
which has three active volcanoes; Ruapehu, Tongariro and Ngauruhoe. Rivers and huge volcanic cones
provide scope for kayaking, canoeing, hiking, climbing and skiing. The park has many walking tracks
and the popular ski fields of Whakapapa, Turoa and Tukino. Hunters will find plenty to keep them
busy, hunting for feral deer, pigs, goats, rabbits and possums.
