Waimangu Volcanic Valley is the only hydro thermal system in the world wholly created within written history. Take the walk/hike at your own pace through the craters and amazing geothermal features of the beautiful Waimangu Volcanic Valley.See volcanic activity, native plants and bird-life in one of the newest eco-systems in the world. Your walk is followed by the Lake Rotomahana Cruise to see steaming cliffs, gushing hot springs and the site of the destroyed famous pink and white terraces.
Waimangu offers a range of easy ecology-focused walks through the craters of the beautiful Waimangu Volcanic Valley.
There are a number of easy walks available. In each case, your walk will follow a predominantly downhill path. You can then take one of our courtesy shuttle buses back up the valley to the Waimangu Entrance.
For the Walking Tour and Boat Cruise allow approx 3 hours and make sure you dress for the weather including good walking shoes.
Lake Rotomahana covers approximately 15 coalescing craters formed by the 1886 Tarawera Eruption. It took 15 years after the Eruption to fill to its current height and is now the deepest lake in the North Island. It is also the newest of all NZ’s larger, naturally formed, lakes. The lake is protected as a wildlife refuge, and large numbers of birds live here all year round. The lake and surrounding land are protected from development, and will always remain as one of NZ’s beautiful, unspoilt, natural, wilderness areas.
