Volcanic landscapes are often described as "lunar" because they are so out of the ordinary. This moon, however, is a little too green for us to really believe we're there! The steaming craters are no less spectacular, reminding us once again of the power that lurks in the depths of the Earth. The main trail, accessible to strollers and wheelchairs, takes 45 min to complete. A 20-minute detour to a viewpoint is also possible. Contemplative souls will undoubtedly enjoy lingering a little longer.

Voyage sur la Lune !
Visitez cet endroit spéciale pour seulement 6$ par personne. Une promenade de 1h30 environ pour se retrouver sur la Lune avec plusieurs cratères et sources bouillonnantes.

Moins impressionnant que le parc géothermique de Wai-o-tapu mais tout aussi intéressant et étonnant. De petites fumerolles s'échappent d'un peu partout dans une atmosphère très lunaire. Deux cratères sont à observer, qui crachent une épaisse fumée, c'est assez magique et dépaysant. L'entrée du site est payante mais cela vaut le coup et il y a peu de touristes sur place. Ne pas y aller entre midi et deux car le soleil tape directement et pas d'ombre !

Joli petit site. Moins impressionnant que ses voisins mais très intéressant aussi. Balade facile et agréable jusqu'au "cratère". Décor un peu lunaire comme son nom l'indique...
