Established in 1982, the Lodge has an excellent reputation for gourmet dining, the finest accommodation, quality outdoor activities; and the very best in trout fishing guides.
Tongariro Lodge offers old fashioned comfort and style combined with friendly personal service.

Guest accommodation is separate from the main Lodge. This ensures maximum privacy. Riverside chalets range from one to three bedrooms. Each chalet has private facilities and its own secluded sunny terrace with views of the Tongariro River, Lake Taupo, or the mountains.

Tongariro Lodge has developed an international reputation for fine food and wine. The Lodge specialises in serving the best of New Zealand game and traditional foods.

The true atmosphere of the Lodge is best experienced in front of an open fire over a four course evening meal as the day's activities are recounted - and stories get taller as the evening wears on.
Breakfast and luncheon are provided at your leisure. Hamper lunches are one of our specialities.

Relax in the Angler's Den or enjoy a game of tennis on our all - weather court.

Guests at Tongariro Lodge are able to choose from a diverse range of outdoor activities.

Tongariro National Park is an all year outdoor playground - and is right on our doorstep. In 45 minutes you could be off into the mountains for a days' heli-hiking or you could be on the slopes of Mount Ruapehu, an active volcano.

There are five first class golf courses all within 45 minutes of the Lodge or enjoy a leisurely drive around the shore of the lake to the town of Taupo with its many attractions.
