★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you want to see a geothermal power station it’s the perfect place ! There are a lot of long pipes and some vapeur to release the pressure. The panel at the top is very instructive. To go there (lookout), take the road for Wairakei Terraces and go ahead on the drive which follow the long pipes up to the summit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great drive to the end of the bore field with a splendid view to the geothermal power station. Not well signposted (turn off before BP when heading south) but well worth the drive. Despite operating for over 50 years it never fails to impress.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A must see experience for your stay in Taupo. Amazing. Please visit this place.
I recently visited Warakei which lies in the Taupo Volcanic Zone and saw the Wairakei power station, world's first geothermal plant of its kind anywhere in the world. Using vast underground water steam heated inside the earth's core, this natural energy delivered to drive the turbines can deliver power for almost 150,000 homes.
Used to the cacophony of the energy debate in Australia, a question came to my mind - Could energy be any more greener than this?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had no idea that it was possible to drive into the Geothermal Area. No indication signs to say as much . Followed the road as it climbed and finally could go no further. What a fantastic sight once at the top made even better by the weather .
