Rotorua Environs
The countryside near Rotorua includes magnificent untamed territory with lakes and rivers full of some of the largest rainbow and brown trout on Earth. Fishing is big business from here down through Taupo and on into Tongariro National Park. If you're dreaming of landing the "big one," this is the place to do it.
