Right, back on track now and time for an update. Travelling south of Waitomo we headed for Lake Taupo, New Zealand's largest lake - really a massive volcanic crater. We stayed in a nearby town called Turangi, by a river world-renowned for fly-fishing (apparently) and did a fabulous "bush" walk round a much smaller volcanic crater lake - Rotopounamu. There were much longer walks but they were 7 hours plus across vast fields of volcano cones, some of them active as recently as 1996. This 6km walk was ample though, you can see the diagram on this chart, and we head south again...
