Mauao is the ancient dormant volcano that sits at the end of Mount Maunganui's peninsula. Rising to 232 metres above sea level, the mountain dominates local scenery and provides visitors with a choice of walks. The 3.4 kilometre base track is an easy stroll and there are close-up sea views all the way; the summit track is more challenging, but you'll be rewarded with panoramic views of ocean, beach and harbour from the top. At the base of the mountain is a geothermal spring that provides hot water for a complex of swimming pools - after all that walking, you might need a nice hot soak.
