Auckland - Taupo

Travel across the rolling dairy country of the Waikato, through the southern hemisphere's largest man made forest (Kaiangaroa Forest) to the geothermal centre of the North Island. The expansive Lake Taupo, New Zealand's largest lake, is the result of volcanic eruptions that took place over 25,000 years ago. Play the Wairakei Golf course with its blend of natural surroundings of native birds and bush, cleverly protected by predator proof fences.
