Mount Pihanga Description
Over Turangi looms Mount Pihanga (1325m), which in Maori mythology, as the only 'female' volcano, is courted by the 'male' volcanoes in the surrounding area. From the Pihanga Saddle Road Viewpoint there is a marvelous view of Lake Taupo. Near here is the idyllic Lake Rotopounamu.
