Mount
Taranaki,
2518m, a volcano with a near spherical cone, dominates the countryside
and the weather patterns, is surrounded on three sides by the Tasman Sea.
With spectacular
views up and down New Zealand Mount Taranaki holds the title of the most
climbed mountain in New Zealand due to its accessibility. Summit climbs
are achievable within four hours in favourable conditions! Imagine climbing
to the summit of a mountain during your trip to New Zealand!
Skiing, snowboarding,
rock climbing, tramping and all other alpine activities are possible in
the Egmont National Park area.
Warning:
Good level of fitness and experience required as this mountain is dangerous
and has claimed the most lives in New Zealand.

The
Tasman Sea,
surrounds the province and provides consistent swells which wrap around
the Taranaki coastline.
Somewhere
on the coast you will find offshore conditions perfect for surfing. World
Surfing, Knee boarding and Wind Surfing championships are held here.
There are
reef, beach and point breaks scattered right around the province with
some rides up to a kilometre long. The diversity and actual number of
surf breaks is truly extraordinary.
A real
surfer's paradise.
