Taupo DeBretts Thermal Resort's Recommended See and Do
Activities
Lake Taupo in the North Island of New Zealand is a
fantastic holiday spot. Where else can you ski down an
active volcano, savour geothermal prawns, do 360 degree
spins on a jet boat under a mighty waterfall, mountain bike
on the Craters of the moon, ride quad bikes through
volcanic farmlands, jump in a fresh volcanic lake the size
of Singapore and partake in a centuries-old mineral bathing
tradition. All DeBretts guests are provided with a Taupo Top Attractions Map and a list
of all the Things to Do and See in the Volcanic
Zone.

See below our recommended itinerary for a two or
three-day visit to the Lake Taupo Volcanic Zone.
Question: This is my first visit to New Zealand. I have
planned to spend two days in the Lake Taupo region. What
sightseeing and activities should I see and do?
Answer:
Our team will be happy to help you plan a wonderful
visit to the Lake Taupo Volcanic Zone. Lake Taupo is
renowned for trout fishing, nature hiking, geothermal
parks, hot pool mineral bathing, vibrant cafes, fine
dining, water sports and every adventure activity under the
sun, such as jet-boating, skydiving, bungy jumping, white
water rafting and more. The area’s volcanic beauty is
best seen from a aeroplane adventures volcanic scenic
flight, and the surrounding forests can be explored on
foot, horseback, quad or mountain bikes.
For a two-day stay, I would recommend
- nature walks on Craters of the Moon, from Spa Park to
Huka Falls along the Waikato River or along the Lions
Walk on the lakefront
- mineral thermal bathing or a natural spa therapy at
Taupo Hot Springs Spa (on-site at Taupo Thermal DeBretts
Resort)
- volcanic scenic flight with Volcanic Aeroplane
Adventures, why not a flight to White Island an active
volcano
- having brunch at L’arte, savouring yummy treats
in a mosaic and sculpture garden in beautiful Acacia
Bay
- visiting the hidden Valley at the thermal wonderland
of Orakei Korako
- having a scenic cruise on Lake Taupo, catch a trout,
and viewing the breathtaking Maori Carvings (only
accessible by boat or kayak) We recomend the Sailing
Yacht Barbary, they conduct daily scenic boat cruises and
is available for private yacht charter sailing on Lake
Taupo, in the Central Plateau and volcanic Zone of New
Zealand. Where else can you sail in a volcanic crater
lake?
- enjoying a nightcap by the log fire at the Terraces
Cellar Bar (on-site at Taupo DeBretts Thermal
Resort)
If you had more time an unforgettable day walk in the
Whirinaki Rainforest, complete with stories of Maori myths
and legends would be a must; a cultural evening with Maori
hangi at the Wairakei Terraces; cocktail hour with a glass
of wine and fresh prawn cocktail at the Huka Prawn Park;
experiencing a thrilling jet boat ride; a round of golf at
Wairakei, NZ’s premier golf course and one of the
best in the world; and much, much more!
