Sail Barbary Cruise to the Maori Rock Carvings
Discover the impressive 14-metre high Mine Bay Maori Rock Carvings - only accessible by boat!
Set sail for an adventure like no other at the Mine Bay Maori Rock Carvings on Great Lake Taupo. These Maori Carvings are most likely the largest type of their type in the world, at over 14-metres high – you've really got to see them, to believe them!
What makes the carvings even cooler is that they are only accessible by boat... so that's where Sail Barbary comes in. With over 34 years of experience, Sail Barbary knows Taupo Moana (Lake Taupo) like the back of their hand.
On board their lovingly restored classic, white sailing yacht you'll feel truly at home. Listen as your experienced guide explains the cultural significance behind the carvings and offers you some incredible picture post card moments. Get your cameras at the ready and don't forget to #maorirockcarvings! Feel free to BYO (Bring Your Own) food and drink in true kiwi fashion – is there anything better than popping a cold one as you soak up the sun?
Also, Sail Barbary are all about getting hands on, so if you're after a bit of sailing action we'd love you to help hoist the sails and have a go at steering the wheel. Plus, if the wind dies down Sail Barbary's eco-friendly electric engine will kick in and have you sailing silently across the water. They also provide warm ponchos to keep you cosy - what pros.
This really is an unforgettable sailing trip to the Mine Bay Maori Rock Carvings!

Lions Walk aka The Great Lake Walkway Mountain Bike Trail Guide Video, Great Lake Taupo, New Zealand
The Lions Walk, also referred to as the Great Lake Walkway, is a shared walk and cycle track that was created on the lake reserve by the Taupo Lions Club.
The trail is an easy 10km long, grade 1 ride. It is suitable for riders of every skill level, from absolute beginners to experts wanting a relaxed, scenic cruise. This is riding at its most basic level and is an ideal opportunity for a family to experience Lake Taupo together.
Getting There :
The trail begins at the Taupo Boat Harbour, where Redoubt Street meets Ferry Rd (but there are plenty of parking options along the length of the ride, meaning you can start and finish the trail at any point you choose).
From the Harbour it heads along the lakefront, along which you can see stunning views across the lake toward Mt Ruapehu, Mt Tongariro and Mt Ngauruhoe. The track passes a number of popular hotels and motels, as well as hot water spots where you can stop and dip your toes in the hot sand.
The paved walkway continues on past the Three Mile Bay boat ramp, taking in more secluded bays with boats moored and some lovely holiday homes. There are a number of picnic and rest areas on the lakefront where you can stop and take in the views or have a swim.
Kowhai trees have been planted along the way to provide shelter for local wildlife. Ducks and swans can usually be seen as you pass by.
This beautiful ride along the lakefront is restful and relaxing. With stunning scenery and lapping lake water on the pumice beaches, this is a therapeutic and healthy ride for any age group.
The Tongariro River Trail is a relaxing ride, along one of the North Island’s most popular rivers.
It is perfectly suited for families and casual riders seeking to explore the native bush and clear waters of the river, without having to ride a long distance.
The track is a grade 2 trail on mostly flat terrain, making it suitable for children and beginner riders to enjoy.
It’s a 15km loop track of undulating, yet comfortable ground, which will take a family a couple of hours to complete (or close to an hour for more experienced riders).
Getting There :
The trail begins at the car park next to the Tongariro River Bridge on State Highway 1 in Turangi, where you can park your car. Alternatively you can take a shuttle service from Taupo or Turangi to the trail head.
There are alternative starting points along the trail where you can park your car at the scenic reserves and begin your ride from there. This means shorter routes can be tailored to suit your particular needs. Contact the Turangi i-SITE or one of the shuttle services who will help you customize the best drop off and pick up point for you.
The trail has a variety of scenic locations to stop off at for a picnic lunch, or even a quick dip in the river to cool off during the hot summer months.
The Tongariro National Trout Centre is also on route, where you can get up close to the beautiful trout which inhabit the Tongariro River, or view the endangered native Whio (Blue Duck) at the newly purpose-built hardening facillity.
The trail can be ridden in all weather conditions and mobile phone coverage is good throughout the ride.
