| More than one hundred years ago, the serenity enjoyed by a former Maori village would be shattered by an outpouring of the Earth's fury. A volcanic eruption lasting more than four terrifying hours hurled rocks, ash and boiling hot mud into the air. Five thousand square miles of countryside was buried. Today you'll visit The Buried Village plus Lake Tarawera with views of Mt Tarawera volcano and much more! |
| Explore the stunning lakes district south of Rotorua. Visit Lake Tikitapu (Blue Lake) and view Lake Rotokakahi (Green Lake). These amazingly clear and colorful lakes are a favorite stop for visitors. Learn about their history and enjoy the scenery. Next drive to picturesque Lake Tarawera. Look out over lake and learn the history and legends of the great eruption of Mount Tarawera. Short walk to ancient Maori rock paintings. Finish the day with a guided tour through The Buried Village, the site of a former Maori village, destroyed during the Tarawera eruption. New museum housing English and Maori antiquities. Scenic walk through excavations, native bush, trout filled river and waterfalls. |
