Tongariro National Park, located in the central North Island of New Zealand, is one of the most unique and spectacular parks in the world. It is the first national park in the world to be recognized by UNESCO as a dual World Heritage site, due to its natural and cultural significance. The park offers many incredible attractions and scenic landscapes including two active volcanoes (Mount Tongariro and Mount Ngauruhoe) and the lovely Lake Rotorua. There are numerous hiking and tramping trails for those seeking an outdoor adventure, or for the smaller scale traveler, the park offers remarkable cycling routes (including the Tongariro North Circuit), kayaking, fishing lakes, camping areas, and a selection of ski runs in certain seasons. The landscape of the park is remarkable and varied, from its characteristic geothermal features to sparkling emerald lakes, from wide open vistas to its numerous towering waterfalls. With stunning views over its forests, plateaus and valleys, Tongariro National Park is a must-visit for travelers and photographers alike.
