Taupo is the heart of New Zealand’s North Island, sitting in between both
Wellington and
Auckland, on the edge ofTaupo Lake, the largest lake in Australasia. According to Maori legend, Taupo Lake is the North Island’s beating heart, and it’s easy to see what they mean when you explore the magnitude of this spectacular lake.
Taupo is known for adventure activities like bungy jumping, sky diving and white water rafting, but it’s also known for low-key actives like hiking, fishing and boating. This makes Taupo the perfect North Island escape, for all ages.
