Highlights
The ultimate combo. Zipline over waterfalls, White water rafting on the
Kaituna river followed by a soak in the hot pools at Manupiua Springs Hot
Pools.
Nestled on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, Lake Rotoiti Hot Pools is a unique
Aotearoa New Zealand experience.
Being accessible only by boat or by air is what keeps this haven so unspoiled
and pristine. Enjoy the beauty of the surrounding native flora and fauna,
with seven mineral hot pools to soak in and the clear blue lake waters to cool
down in.
Transfer across Lake Rotoiti by water taxi, which leaves just 2 minutes from
the Rotorua Rafting base.
Then just select the mineral hot pool based on your temperature preference,
and slip in to soak away your worries – awakening the mind, body, and soul.
Head down to the lake for an exhilarating dive off the jetty or whizz down the
slide into New Zealand’s biggest plunge pool!
Embark on a scenic walk up into the hills behind the pools to admire the
native bush and take in the stunning views of Lake Rotoiti from the top.
