Located in the central part of New Zealand's North Island, Ruapehu is part of the Waikato and Manutoto regions and is known for its spectacular volcanic landscapes and outdoor activities. It is home to the highest active volcano in the North Island, Ruatoki Peak (2,797 meters above sea level), whose snowy summit contrasts with the surrounding grasslands and forests, and is one of the core areas of Tongariro National Park. In winter, the area is a skier's paradise, with the two main ski resorts of Whakapapa and Turoa offering quality trails, while in summer it transforms into a hiking and mountaineering destination, as traversed by the famous Tongariro Circuit Trail. Ruatoki is also steeped in Maori culture, with local Maori tribes living in harmony with nature, and visitors can experience traditional villages and Maori art. Whether it's extreme sports or nature exploration, Ruatoki is a must-see destination in New Zealand.
