Vulcão Ruapehu
O pico mais alto da Ilha do Norte e um dos vulcões mais ativos da Nova Zelândia, com um lago de cratera no cume e pistas de esqui nas encostas. Em 1953 um lahar do lago da cratera arrastou a ponte ferroviária de Tangiwai minutos antes da chegada de um comboio, matando 151 pessoas; hoje um sistema automático de alerta de lahares vigia o lago.
