The city of Rotorua nestles on the shores of Lake Rotorua, the largest of 11 lakes formed by ancient volcanos. Rotorua is a region of fascinating geothermal activity and the thermal areas at Whakarewarewa, Waimangu, Waiotapu and Hell’s Gate offer visitors a fascinating mix of geysers, hot mud pools, hot springs, steaming craters and sulphur-smelling steam. Rotorua Thermal Holiday Park is located opposite the Arikikapakapa Golf Course and next-door to Waiariki Institute of Technology. The Holiday Park is a 5-minute walk from the world-famous Te Puia Thermal Reserve, including Pohutu Geyser, boiling mud pools and the Maori Arts and Crafts Centre (currently undergoing $10 million redevelopment). The Holiday Park is also the closest accommodation to Waka Forest with its many mountain bike and walking tracks. Rotorua is an adventure playground for adrenalin junkies with endless thrills and sporting options including downhill rolling with Zorb or racing down a mountain side on luge tracks. Others jump from bungy towers or tandem skydive from planes and helicopters. The less adventurous go hiking, horseback riding, or spin their wheels on 4WD safaris. If you want fun, fun, fun, Rotorua is the place to be. Rotorua City with a population of almost 52,000 is the regional centre for commerce, tourism, forestry, manufacturing and retailing. Rotorua has good road links to Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga and Taupo and Rotorua Airport is served by several domestic airlines.
