Alin爱旅游:“Explore the "Mount Fuji" of the Southern Hemisphere - Mount Egmont in New Plymouth
New Plymouth, a city on the west coast of New Zealand's North Island, is not only the capital of Tananaqi Province, but also the only seaport city on the west coast. It is a sister city with Kunming in my country and Mishima in Japan, sharing the bond of culture and friendship.
🌈 Attractions
Mount Egmont, known as the most perfect volcano in New Zealand, stands proudly at an altitude of 2,518 meters. It is surrounded by a vast plain. No matter from which angle you look, you can feel the visual shock as if you are under Mount Fuji. Mount Egmont has a history of 120,000 years, and the last eruption was in 1775. Volcanologists believe that it is currently in a "dormant" state, not dead, which makes it full of mystery and expectations.
🌋 History and Culture
The legend of Mount Egmont is equally fascinating. Legend has it that Mount Taranaki was once part of the Tongariro volcanic group, but was discovered by Tongariro when it was having a tryst with Tongariro's lover, the Pihanga volcano on Lake Taupo. Mount Taranaki fled south in shame, leaving behind the scar of the Wanganui River. From then on, it guarded the land alone, as if hiding its sadness in a cloud of tears.
🕒 Scenic Area Opening Hours
The Mount Egmont Scenic Area is open all year round. Even in summer, visitors can enjoy the snow on the top of the mountain and experience the changes of the four seasons.
🚶♂️ Route Recommendation
It is recommended to start from the Mangorei Track Trailhead and climb along the Pouakai Track and Tarn. This path has both gentle sections and 45-degree steep stairs. When you see the Pouakai Hut, it means you are about to reach the top of the mountain, and the view there will make your hard climb worthwhile.
💖 Other tips
Don't forget to take sun protection measures while exploring Mount Egmont. New Zealand's ultraviolet rays are very strong, and protecting your skin is an important part of enjoying your trip.
Mount Egmont is not only a treasure of natural landscape, but also a carrier of cultural legends. It quietly tells stories of the past, waiting for every traveler to discover and feel. Whether for the magnificent scenery or for the moving legend, Mount Egmont is worth your personal visit to experience its unique charm.”

OK鑫:“A white fishbone bridge, simple and modern. Located on the seaside, with complete trails nearby, you can stroll around, watch the waves on the beach, or overlook the snow-capped mountains from the bridge. Surrounded by green grass, the air is fresh.”

Opening hours: 09:00-17:00
iQOO🐮:“The experience of the Waitomo Firefly Cave was amazing. As soon as you entered the cave, it was dark and quiet, and only the fireflies above you flickered like stars. Sitting on a boat, glide up and look up at the blue-green spots, as if floating in the galaxy. The whole process was quiet, no explanation, no noise, only the sound of water and light and shadow, making people completely immersed in the dreamy atmosphere. Short but unforgettable.”Where to stay
