Kuratau Lakefront

Kuratau Lakefront

Kuratau sits on the southwest edge of Lake Taupō. There is not much there other than holiday homes, but take a walk along the sandy lakefront, accessible from the suburban streets adjacent to the water, Parehopu and Hiuhiuawai Street.

Walking north, you will eventually come to a playground and the mouth of the Kuratau River, with its stunning rock walls ascending from the water. A track that follows the river, Whiowhio Track, is not immediately accessible from here.
