Amaphuzu avelele eMgwaqweni Wama-Scenic Ukusuka Auckland kuya eTaupo via Rotorua
I-Rotorua ne-Taupo yizinto ezimbili ezivelele ezokuvakasha eNew Zealand eNorth Island. Ukuhamba okuvela e- Auckland okuthatha emadolobheni amabili kuyindlela elula yamahora amane (ngaphandle kwama-stop) futhi kunezindawo eziningi ezithakazelisayo endleleni.
Auckland naseNingizimu
Ukushiya i-Auckland ngasemgwaqweni oseningizimu, izindlu zinikela emapulazini. Uzowela i-Bombay Hills, ephawula umngcele phakathi kwezifunda zase-Auckland nase-Waikato.
Lokhu kuyindawo ebalulekile yezitshalo ezifana no-anyanisi namazambane, njengoba kuboniswa umhlabathi obomvu obandayo obomvu emasimini eduze komgwaqo.
Ukudlula eTe Kauwhata, uMfula Waikato uqala ukubuka ngaphambi kwedolobha laseHuntly. Ngokuziqhenya idolobha lokumba izimayini futhi isiteshini samandla esithintekayo sihamba esikhulu ngakwesokunene komfula. I-Waikato ingumfula omude kunawo wonke eNew Zealand (425km) futhi ubheke umgwaqo omkhulu wendlela eya eHamilton.
Abaningi abahamba phambili baqhubeka beya eHamilton, kodwa kukhona indlela ehlukile futhi emangalisayo lapho ungadlula khona imoto kaHamilton ngokuphelele. Ngaphambi nje kweNgaruawahia ukubukela isibonakaliso ngakwesokunxele kuya eCambridge ngeGordonton (Highway 1B). Lokhu kuthatha indlela ngokusebenzisa izindawo ezithile zasemapulazini nezintaba futhi kuyindlela enhle yokugwema ithrafikhi esindayo edolobheni laseHamilton. Ama-paddocks aluhlaza emifula yobisi aningi.
I-Cambridge
Ukusondela eCambridge amafama obisi abanikezela izikhwama zamahhashi; Lona ikhaya labanye abalimi behhashi phezulu eNew Zealand. I-Cambridge ngokwayo idolobha elincane elijabulisayo elinalo (njengoba igama layo libonisa) umoya weNgilandi ngakho. Yenza indawo enhle ukuma futhi welule imilenze ngokuhamba ngezindawo eziningi ezinamapaki amahle.
Ngeningizimu yeCambridge yiLake Karapiro, ebonakala ngokucacile emgwaqweni. Nakuba ngokuyinhloko iyingxenye yoMfula u-Waikato, lokhu kuyichibi lokufakelwa eladalwe ngo-1947 ukuze londle isiteshi samandla esendaweni. Manje ibamba imidlalo yezemidlalo ehlukahlukene futhi ibhekwa njengendawo yokuqala yokudonsa eNew Zealand.
I-Tirau
Uma ufuna i-cafe enhle, i-Tirau yindawo. Umgwaqo omkhulu odlula edolobheni ugcwele izindawo ezincane ezithakazelisayo zokudla nokujabulela ikhofi. Ekuqaleni komgqa wokuthenga kukhona izakhiwo ezimbili ezihlukile kakhulu ezakhiwa yi-Tourist Information Centre; ekwakheni inja nezimvu, lezi zinkimbinkimbi zenziwe ngensimbi esonakele.

Kusondela ku-Rotorua
Ukuwela esifundeni samaMamaku, imvelaphi yomsakazo wezwe elizungezile iRororua iqala ukubonakala. Ngokuyinhloko, phawula ezincane ezinjenge-outcrops zedwala elikhomba emhlabathini. Ebizwa ngokuthi 'ama-spines', lawa angama-cova aqinekile e-lava avela ezintshonalanga ezintaba-mlilo; njengoba i-lava yaqhamuka phansi emhlabathini izigidi zeminyaka eyedlule futhi yahlile yashiya idwala eliqinile elachazwa njengoba inhlabathi eyayizungezile isuka kude.
I-Rotorua
I-Rotorua yindawo egcwele umsebenzi omangalisayo wokushisa. I-steam isuka emhlabathini ezindaweni eziningi futhi ungahlola izindawo ezinamanzi amanzi abilayo noma amanzi anesulfure.
Okunye ukukhangwa kweRororua kuyithuba lokuzwa isiko lendabuko laseMew Zealand eliseNew Zealand eliboniswa lapha kuncono kunanoma yikuphi okunye ezweni.
I-Rotorua eya eTaupo
Umgwaqo ovela e-Rotorua kuya eTaupo ugcwele amahlathi amakhulu e-pine kanye nezindawo ezithakazelisayo ze-volcanic.
Njengoba usondela eTaupo uzodlula ku-Station Wairakei Geothermal Power Station kanye neyodwa yezemfundo ezinhle kakhulu zezwe.
A kumele-ayeke phambi kweTaupo yiNtaba yamaHuka. Le gap ephawulekayo eduma amanzi ngokusuka eLake Taupo ngesilinganiso sama-200,000 amalitha ngomzuzwana, okwanele ukugcwalisa amachibi ama-Olympic-size amabhuku okubhukuda angaphansi kweminithi. Iphawula ukuqala kohambo lukaMfula u-Waikato u-425 khilomitha olwandle.

Taupo
Njengelwandle elikhulu kakhulu e-Australasia, iLake Taupo liphupho lomdobi womdobi. Kukhona neminye imikhakha eminye yemisebenzi yamanzi kanye nemikhawulo yasemhlabeni kunoma yimuphi emadolobheni avulekile aseNew Zealand.
Isikhathi sokushayela:
- Auckland eya eCambridge ngeGordonton: 1.75 amahora
- I-Cambridge eya e-Rotorua: amahora angu-1.25
- I-Rotorua eya eTaupo: ihora eli-1
Ngaphambilini: Auckland kuya e-Rotorua
