Vulcano Ruapehu
La vetta più alta dell'Isola del Nord e uno dei vulcani più attivi della Nuova Zelanda, con un lago craterico in cima e piste da sci sui fianchi. Nel 1953 un lahar dal lago craterico travolse il ponte ferroviario di Tangiwai pochi minuti prima dell'arrivo di un treno, uccidendo 151 persone; oggi un sistema automatico di allerta lahar sorveglia il lago.
