There is a tremendous sense of personal achievement, confidence and camaraderie with this type of activity.

If you are not sure of your fitness levels or your fear of heights, anyone from the age of 7 can take part at Rock’‘n Ropes, their half day package is the most popular with a progression of six exhilarating high ropes course activities. Rock’n Ropes is suitable for individuals, couples and groups.

Pack a picnic and enjoy hours of entertainment prawn fishing, hand feeding baby prawns, trout feeding, and touring the nursery and hatchery at Huka Prawn Park.

Children love playing on the aqua trike, pedal boats, stand up paddle boards, water bikes and the gauntlet.  You can even soak your feet in the geothermal foot baths along the edge of the Waikato river. Take your prawns home, or have them cooked for free in the restaurant.

The park is open every day.

Sail Barbary has been locally owned and operated since 1983, and offers Taupo water activities the Kiwi way. You can look out over sparking bays or stormy waters from the comfort of your bean-bag style seating, swim in the crystal clear waters, and have perfect photo opportunities of the 14-meter high Maori Rock Carvings.

This fun activity has become a Taupo icon!  Whether you're just there to watch or take a swing yourself, the Taupo Hole in One Challenge is not to be missed. 

You'll attempt to hit golf balls onto an 8m x 12m floating pontoon in the lake, receiving a free ball each time you hit the pontoon.  Use the golfing equipment provided or feel free to bring your own lucky clubs.  There are three holes to go for and fantastic prizes if you hit the jackpot.
