Day 7 :: R&R in Rotorua and Taupo
On my 7th day on the North Island, I decide to take it easy and treat myself to a morning hot mineral-rich bath at the Polynesian Spa in downtown Rotorua near Lake Rotorua. After so many days of hiking, driving and sleeping in hostels; it's about time I actually make a vacation out of this trip. The Polynesian Spa's pools are fed with steaming water naturally heated and enriched by geothermal activity all around the Rotorua area.
After a couple of hours at the spa, I drive south to Lake Taupo where for some more sights before I ultimately prep myself for the day-long Tongariro Crossing trek the following day. For this, I make the town of Turangi my base camp and prep food, water and my pack.
