The climate of Taupo (New Zealand)
Taupo is located on Lake Taupo near Tongariro national park. This is the largest park of the North Island. Just like Rotorua Taupo is situated in a volcanic area. The heat that is released by some of these volcanoes is converted into energy. Lake Taupo is the largest lake in New Zealand and was formed by a volcanic eruption. Its beaches and the surroundings of Lake Taupo are truly magnificent. Lake Taupo attracts many fishers as well because of the many trout.
Despite the fact that Taupo has a moderate sea climate this area is windy and cold; especially in comparison to other areas on North Island. During the summer from November to February temperature varies from 10 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. During the winter temperature varies from minus 3 degrees Celsius to 12 degrees Celsius. January, February and March are the warmest months; July and August are the coldest.

The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
