Near Taupo is a venue called the Craters of the Moon Geothermal Walk.
It's downright amazing!
Firstly, it's cheap to go, for the 6 of us was around $20.00 Kiwi.
Secondly, it's an experience you cannot pass up, walking around in the belly of a mountain belching forward steam and hot gasses.
Thirdly, see point number two :)
The walk was amazing, along boardwalks and graveled pathways around the valley, we took around an hour, just gawking at it all and trying to take it all in. I have never seen anything like it anywhere else. The kids were amazed as well, it's just fascinating.
It's so hard to take photos of it all, so I have done another video to share, and that will be in the next post.
When walking around, they say to stick to the pathways for safety, and have built lookouts around the walk above craters so you can get a view.
Even so, the edges crumble from time to time, and even the signs can fall in (Danger. Do Not Enter)
The vegetation is more lush, from the heat and the steam.
Simply an amazing place, and one you must visit if in the area.
