Hamurana Springs


Hamurana.jpg


This is a shot from Hamurana Springs that I took on our visit there last year. It is located on the north side of Lake Rotorua on the North Island of New Zealand.

There is a nice trail to walk around on that has lots of nice scenery, and the stream / spring itself has a beautiful colour. And there is a grove of absolutely huge redwoods there too. I believe you can rent paddle boards there also if you want to explore the springs that way.

Definitely a nice place to stop and have a walk around if you are visiting up around Rotorua.

I haven't heard of these Springs @betelzeus I'm assuming they are hot mineral pools? Your image looks incredibly surreal. I love it.

Hi @trudeehunter , thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment :) . But yeah , actually I think most of the springs were cold , however I think they did have one part that might have been warm/hot. It had a sandy / gravel bottom and it was bubbling up a bit , we didn't get to feel that part of the water though.

And I did adjust a few of the settings to look like that. The water is pretty close to what it actually looked like , the trees however may be slightly over done :) . It did have lots of nice scenery there.

You're very welcome @betelzeus New Zealand has some awesome mineral springs and I remember spending many relaxing hours enjoying hot springs during winter. And of course, the scenery is just so beautiful.
