Experience the magical geothermal landscape at Orakei Korako - The Hidden Valley!
Enjoyed the geothermal landscapes surrounded by native bush. Friendly staff and clearly signposted route. Ferry is on demand so you can take your time.
What an amazing experience! Staff were very friendly and informative. The paths around the park were well maintained with great directions. We liked the 'no rush take your time around' atmosphere. Granted we went when it was raining so not as many people but still loved it all the same. Well done team!
Amazing to walk through the area with the hot geysers and very picturesque.
After arriving at Orakei Karako on a beautiful cold crisp morning and meet by delightful staff, we set off across the lake to start our adventure. An easy walk through thermal activity, well signed, and safe. This whole area is beautifully maintained, and the owners and staff should be commended. We are happy to recommend this activity to family and friends.

Must Do
Make the time to visit here. Spectacular geothermal park in the most beautiful setting. Stay by the riverside in your campervan (if you're visiting the park). Friendly, super helpful team.
