Mt Taranaki & The Forgotten World

A hidden gem on the Western flank of New Zealand's North Island, Taranaki is often overlooked because of its remoteness, but that's the reason to visit! The region is dominated by Mt Taranaki, a dormant volcano with its near-perfect cone and the second highest mountain in the North Island. The mountain reigns supreme over Egmont National Park, a area of diverse vegetation, lush waterfalls, rainforests, and mossy swamps that has developed in an environment of frequent volcanic activity.
