Tips from the community

Despite how it looks, Devil’s Bath isn’t a radioactive wasteland. It’s actually a completely natural sulphur lake, and boy — believe us when we say that neon green smells funky. New Zealand’s Wai-O-Tapu landscape is replete with geysers and other volcanic elements, so there’s plenty of whimsical sights to see beyond Devil’s Bath.
