Orakei Korako Visitor Centre

We always enjoy reading travel blogs about visits to Orakei Korako. They give us an appreciation of the experience our visitors have and give us the opportunity to see the place from a different perspective.

Silica terraces at Orakei Korako

"A bit off the beaten track, Orakei Korako Cave & Thermal Park gets fewer visitors than other thermal areas. But, since the destruction of the Pink and White Terraces, it is arguably the best thermal area left in NZ, even though three-quarters of it now lies beneath the dam waters of Lake Ohakuri."

New Facilities at Orakei Korako

The arrival of our custom-built ferry made complete the extensive renovations that have taken place at Orakei Korako over the past five years.

A full upgrade to our walking track, grounds, cafe, shop and toilet block was completed in 2011.
