Starts at the car park in Spa Park which is at the end of County Avenue (there is a pump track off County Ave on your right). Rotary Ride is a very cool track to ride which splits in a number of places to a one way single track.
During the ride you will pass the spectacular Huka Falls, make sure you get a photo the most photographed natural attraction in New Zealand. From here you can ride down to Aratiatia Dam to watch the dam gate open. The Dam gates open at 10am, 12pm, 2pm and 4pm (summer), and 10am, 12pm and 2pm (winter) and are an impressive sight.
From here it is a fantastic ride back following the Bike Taupo signs past the Wairakei geothermal power station, trough the back of Wairakei Resort past a beautiful green thermal stream, then the Volcanic centre and the Hub Café.
