Taupo Accommodation

Our Taupo accommodation is well placed for you to explore the Lake Taupo region. This is New Zealand's volcanic heartland and is rich in Maori tradition. It also has some of the country's finest untouched, uncrowded and unique landscapes. The lake itself was the result of the most violent volcanic eruption the world has seen in the last 5000 years - the ash affected the sunsets as far away as Europe and China. Maori legend explains the lake a different way. When Ngatoirangi, the chief tohunga (priest) of the Arawa people, first saw the region he was dismayed to find a barren basin. Realising his people needed resources to live, he plucked a large totara tree and hurled it into the crater to seed a new forest. His aim was true, but the wind flipped the totara and it landed upside down, piercing the ground with its branches.

Water gushed up through the holes, filling the basin and creating Lake Taupo. Our Taupo hotels are well placed for you to soak up the rich Maori history and take in some of the key features. Lake Taupo is indeed Australasia's largest lake and was created by a gigantic volcanic eruption in 181AD. At 616 square kilometres, it is as big as Singapore Island. The lake's attractive pumice sand beaches give it the appearance of an inland ocean. And, with all that water about, we can't forget the fishing... so it's a good thing our Taupo accommodation is well placed for the keen trout fisherperson.

Rainbow and brown trout were liberated in Lake Taupo more than 100 years ago. Open for fishing 12 months a year, the lake and its adjoining rivers represent one of the last true wild trout fisheries in the world. It's an intriguing geothermal landscape. Over thousands of years, volcanic action has created a landscape of simmering craters, boiling mud pools, fumaroles and steam vents. Maori mythology is richly interwoven with the geothermal features of the region.
