Adventure

The Bay of Plenty lies in the heart of New Zealand’s North Island, just 2.5 hours from Auckland. Whatever adventure you are planning, you’ll find it here.

• NZ’s Mountain biking capital – over 150 kms of continually evolving trails considered amongst the best riding in the world! #getonyourbike!
• 18 Lakes and 4 Rivers – swim, paddle, ski or fish
• Outdoorsy types enjoy a ride through the Redwoods, a walk around the Mount or a camp beside the Waikato River.

Adventure seekers check out the extreme down-hill at Rainbow Mountain, the high-ropes at Adrenalin Forest or sky-diving over Lake Taupō.

For chilling out how about a soak in any of the numerous hot pools in the region, a surf at Omanu or a picnic at McLaren’s Falls.
