Outdoor enthusiasts are well catered for in the Wairakei Tourist Park. Once you’ve played golf, enjoyed a treatment in the spa and experienced the thrill of a lifetime on a jet boat to the Huka Falls, it might be time to take to the hills on a mountain bike. The hotel rents bikes to guests and has its own track in 169 acres of grounds. The perimeter track also offers access to the surrounding region. With more than 100 km of trails through spectacular scenery, it provides a challenge for all the family, from novice riders to those with years of experience on steeper slopes. You can even join Bike Taupo and Great Lake Taupo’s cycle tracks between the Aratiatia Dam and Lake Taupo. After an invigorating session on 2 wheels, why not head back to the Fairways Café for a mug of something hot or a glass of something cold?
