Rotorua Geothermal Parks

Home to 17 active geothermal features, Rotorua's parks deliver the most dramatic volcanic display in New Zealand, with the Pohutu Geyser erupting up to 30 meters high more than 20 times daily—five times the frequency of the average global geyser. Combined with a Maori cultural experience that attracts over 3 million visitors annually, this destination outperforms #5 Bay of Islands in both visitor numbers and geothermic diversity.
