Air Activities

take a  look from above

You can appreciate the awesome view of Lake Taupo and its volcano's, forests, and mountains from the air in our famous floatplane, aeroplane or helicopter. The beauty of this volcanic plateau in the central north island is a spectacular landscape, in colour and contours. You may choose to take to the sky for a scenic flight, hunting or fishing or be more adventurous by sky diving, so make sure Taupo is the place you experience it.
