dealchecker's guide to Taupo


In the central part of the North Island of New Zealand, Taupo is a medium sized town with plenty of facilities to accommodate intrepid travellers. The town sits at the northern end of Lake Taupo, famed for being the heart of adventure sports in New Zealand. If you plan on indulging in trekking, climbing or other sports which require you to get to remote places outside of Taupo car hire is almost essential as the public transport system into the countryside is fairly limited.
