Mountain Biking
Rotorua is a paradise of outdoor activities. It is a good place for everybody to enjoy a variety of activities in a beautiful natural environment.

While you are riding a bike, the cold winter feeling will disappear and will leave you feeling refreshed.

Hot Pools
Hot pools are a highlight for winter travellers. Especially, after enjoying outdoor activities, hot pools are a wonderful combination that can relieve your body of fatigue and stress. Because of the geothermal zones, Rotorua has a lot of well-developed hot pools. The Polynesian Spa is located in the city and Hell’s Gate is well-known for its Mud Spa.
