The Ruapehu Area

Adventure National Park borders the World Heritage Tongariro National Park to the east and the Whanganui National Park, to the west. It is located near the base of Mount Ruapehu, at the intersection of SH 4 and SH 47 on the volcanic plateau.

In winter the mountains proved a huge playground for skiers and snowboarders at New Zealand's biggest ski resort, Mount Ruapehu.

In the summer the area comes alive with trampers for the Tongariro Crossing, mountain bikers, canoeing, rock climbers, adventure seekers and walkers of the many volcanic hikes.

Get out into the wide open spaces and breath the air, drink the mountain water and enjoy. You will always want to come back for more! Truly a magical refreshing place to spend time winter or summer.

Tongariro National Park was granted dual World Heritage status for its outstanding natural features, and the cultural importance the peaks and rivers represent to the local Maori. The area was designated a National Park in 1887, when Te Heuheu, Paramount Chief of the Ngati Tuiwharetoa people, gifted 2,630 hectares of the central volcano area to the New Zealand Government, including the summits of Tongariro, Ngauruhoe and Ruapehu. His move secured the mountains for all people, for all time.
