Walk #85, 15th April 2022

The mounds are little hillocks of volcanic rock formed after an ancient, massive eruption and landslide on the northern flanks of Mount Ruapehu. The debris created a wave pattern that resulted in these small mounds being spread out for miles.

The walk is short, only 20 minutes, and is on the road leading to the Whakapapa village and Chateau, on the right hand side.
