Heading south from Rotorua is Orakei Korako thermal area which can only be reached by a short ferry crossing across Lake Ohakuri.

This thermal area is slightly less commercial than many of the others around Rotorua, so as a result is much quieter without the hordes of Japanese tourists. There are several geysers around the park, one of which we saw erupt as we walked around the track.

The rainbow terrace is one of the best examples of thermal creativity.
