Rotorua is a smallish city on the shores of Lake Rotorua. The
surrounding areas are a geothermal wonderland, with geysers,
boiling mud pools, and steaming craters - accompanied by
the pervasive smell of sulphur. Rotorua is also a showcase
of Maori cultural activities, a centre of tourism and a
place of extraordinary natural beauty. It is surrounded
by volcanoes, lakes, parks and recreational areas, and is
a great place to go hiking or to view native birds and animals;
you never know, if you're very lucky, you might even see
a Tuatara!
Rotorua is one of the major tourist attractions
in the North Island, but despite this, manages to retain
some of the charming characteristics of a country town.
Their small museum is of particular note in this respect.
One of the major attractions to the fellas
of Freaky Styley Disc Golf is the mountainbiking
- Rotorua has some of the best riding on this planet.
