The beach tends to be the summer destination of choice for many New Zealanders but a lake-based holiday has many of the same benefits, with a lot less sand in your car. Taupō has endless options for all generations of your family and is the perfect place to spend anything from a long weekend to a full week. Here are my picks of what to do in this lakeside location if you have kids in tow - all personally test-driven by my own offspring.

New Zealand is definitely not short on blow-you-away holiday spots and when overseas travel is temporarily off the cards, many Kiwis are counting their blessings to have so many outstanding options right on their doorstep. When deciding where to take your next holiday, it's easy to think you have to go somewhere new, but it's also good to remember that many of the places you think you know - and have visited before - also contain wonderful surprises. New Zealand is full of hidden gems and even our most heavily visited tourist spots have plenty of delights you may not be aware of. Here are some of our favourites.
