Product information

What you need to know
Location

As you walk through native bush and clouds of geothermic steam, you'll discover why this land has inspired myths and legends. Once used by Maori warriors to heal their battle-scarred bodies, visitors now use the nutrient-rich waters and mud to ease inflammation and arthritis, as well as rejuvenate the skin. This unique blend of awe-inspiring power and natural healing properties is a thing of cultural legend - having been used for over 800 years.

Take a guided or self-guided interactive tour of New Zealand's most active geothermal reserve. See erupting waters, an active mud volcano, land coral and a hot waterfall. Experience getting your hands and feet dirty in our healing mud foot pool or try your hand at Maori carving. Come along and you'll soon discover why Hell's Gate is New Zealand's most unique and active geothermal reserve and mud spa.
