The town of Rotorua, which nestles at the southern end of fabulous Lake Rotorua, is at the heart of a volcanic playground set amongst rainforests that have stood the test of time.
All around are pristine lakes, steaming landscapes, bubbling mud pools and shooting geysers. The area is also home to world-class mountain biking, dramatic sceneries and a rich heritage in New Zealand’s cradle of Māori culture and history.
