Our Top Hotels
The charming town of Taupo, home to roughly 26,100 residents as of June 2022, sits proudly on the edge of Lake Taupō, gazing out on a waterbody of epic proportions. Constituted as a borough in 1953, Taupo has been the seat of Taupō District Council since 1989, making it an important hub in the region.
The name Taupō, imbued with the poetic beauty of the Māori language, means the "great cloak of T". Celebrated for its stunning natural beauty, it offers a medley of recreational activities. From pleasant hikes, energetic water sports, laid-back fishing to exhilarating skiing, Taupo is truly a gem for outdoor enthusiasts. Moreover, sights like the Wairakei Power Station, the magnificent Huka Falls, and the iconic Tongariro National Park add to the captivating allure of this diverse destination.
When to visit Taupo
When it comes to timing your visit for the best experience, Taupo shows its warmest face from January to March and in December. These months are considered ideal for soaking in the sunny outdoor activities Taupo has to offer. The rain serves as a charming accompaniment while exploring Taupo between May and September.
However, no matter when you visit, each season has its own unique charm. The colder month of July turns Taupo into a serene winter wonderland, perfect for a cosy escape. But if family fun is what you're after, we recommend the continuously pleasant stretch from January to April for the most delightful family outing. Taupo, truly, offers a fantastic holiday experience year-round.
