Mount Ruapehu, or just Ruapehu, is an active stratovolcano at the southern end of the Taupo Volcanic Zone in New Zealand. It is 23 kilometres northeast of Ohakune and 40 kilometres southwest of the southern shore of Lake Taupo, within Tongariro National Park. The North Island's major skifields and only glaciers are on its slopes.
Ruapehu, the largest active volcano in New Zealand, is the highest point in the North Island and has three major peaks: Tahurangi (2,797 m), Te Heuheu (2,755 m) and Paretetaitonga (2,751 m). The deep, active crater is between the peaks and fills with a crater lake between major eruptions.
I have been using Cassandra now for 5 years and I can't imagine booking a trip without her knowledge and expertise. I am the type that says somewhere hot with a beautiful beach between these prices, what can you find me and she has never failed me. The best part is, is that she has traveled so much that if I ask a certain question, she knows the answer from experience and she always tells the truth about all resorts so I know exactly what I am getting when I get there. I just love that I can email her saying this is what I'd like, find me a few resorts and we'll meet to discuss. She was recommended to me and I have referred her to everyone I talk to. She is the best and we love her and will always book with her. She really cares that your vacation is the best for you and always goes above and beyond..
