Workation in Taupō: the essentials
Taupō sits on the north shore of New Zealand's largest lake, a volcanic caldera, in the geographic centre of the North Island. The town of about 26,000 has lakefront cafes, natural hot pools in the Waikato River, the Huka Falls, skydiving and mountain biking, and the Tongariro Alpine Crossing an hour south; Rotorua's geothermal parks are 80 km north. Fibre is ubiquitous and fast, as across urban New Zealand. There are a couple of coworking spaces and a friendly, outdoorsy community with plenty of holiday rentals, though long-term places are tighter in summer and during Ironman week. Trade-offs: nightlife is small, the town centre is compact and quiet in winter, and you need a car for most trails. Taupō Airport is 6 km away with Air New Zealand flights to Auckland and Wellington; Auckland is 3.5 hours by road.
