Waimangu Volcanic & Thermal Valley (Rotorua, New Zealand)

The Waimangu Volcanic Rift Valley is located 14 kilometres south of Rotorua on New Zealand’s North Island. The volcanic eruption of Mount Tarawera on the 10th June 1886 resulted in the creation of this 17 kilometre long valley. Until 1903 there was an active geyser caller the Waimangu Geyser, which gave its name to the valley. Waimangu means “black water” in Maori and refers to the colour of the water that the Waimangu Geyser spurted. There are still many other smaller active hot springs in the valley, which makes this the world’s youngest geothermal eco-system. Within the valley there is Lake Rotomahana, which has a population of Black Swans and the surrounding land is home to wallabies. Both of these species are native to Australia and are believed to have been introduced into the area in the 19th century. Visitors to the Waimangu Volcanic Valley can explore it on foot, by car or by organised excursion. Further information regarding visiting is available on the website.
