Tongariro/Taupo

Every year hundreds join DOC staff
and volunteers in discovering our
natural heritage, in this case a climb
up Mt Tihia
A number of conservation events are run in the Tongariro/Taupo region by DOC and other local organisations. Key events include:
Summer Nature programme
Our Summer Nature programme is back again this year, with some new offerings as well as favourite trips like the Waipakihi heli-hike. A special trip for the family this year is a mountain bike ride across Poronui station and down to the Mohaka river where a hot billy of tea will be waiting!
Check the Summer Nature Programme details.
Children's fishing days
Children's Fishing Days are run at the Tongariro National Trout Centre by members of the Tongariro National Trout Centre Society.
