Waiotapu Thermal Wonderland
Located near Rotorua, Waiotapu Thermal Wonderland is one of New Zealand’s most colorful and surreal geothermal parks. Known as a “geothermal wonderland,” it features dramatic landscapes shaped by thousands of years of volcanic activity. Visitors can wander along well marked trails that reveal steaming lakes, bubbling mud pools, and vibrant mineral terraces in shades of orange, green, and yellow. One of the highlights is the famous Champagne Pool, a striking hot spring with vivid colors and rising steam that creates a dreamlike atmosphere. The Lady Knox Geyser is another must see, erupting daily and reaching heights of up to 20 meters. Along the way, the strong scent of sulfur reminds you of the earth’s raw energy beneath your feet. “Waiotapu thermal wonderland ” by Author (https://www.flickr.com/photos/42867459@N06/49517734853), licensed under CC BY 2.0 “Waiotapu thermal wonderland ” by Author (https://www.flickr.com/photos/didierbigand/49517744133), licensed under CC BY 2.0
