Hot stuff: New Zealand's best natural hot springs

Hot stuff: New Zealand's best natural hot springs

Plunge into soothing and healing natural hot pools and springs, writes Ewan McDonald
New Zealand's blown hot and cold over the millennia, so we have more than 100 thermal hot pools and springs – from the free to the luxurious. They'll help soothe your skin and muscles and maybe add years to your life.
Thorpe Talbot is not a name that resounds in Aotearoa's literary history, so full credit: in 1882 she published our first tourist guidebook,
The new guide to the lakes and hot springs, and A month in hot water. Unfortunately, many of her not-to-be-missed attractions were blown up four years later in the Tarawera eruption. Not to worry, there are still plenty to soak in today.

World Famous in New Zealand: Taupō's free, warm water haven - Otumuheke Stream

This little town of just 30,000 punches well above its weight with hidden gems
Otumuheke Stream steams quietly through bush and scrub and along the edge of Spa Thermal Park in Taupō.
Then it drops down a couple of small waterfalls, filling the pools below them with beautifully warm, silky mineral water, before finally easing into the mighty Waikato. It’s gentle, beautifully relaxing and, unlike the more commercial options available, completely natural.
You just walk about 25 minutes from the town centre and through the park down towards the river. Once there, you get into your togs and then climb down the steps at the stream’s edge to soak in one of the pools, or even sit directly underneath the little waterfall.

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.
