Tongariro National Trout Centre, Turangi

Walk #79, 12th Jan 2022

This pleasant spot near Turangi is a trout fishery run by DOC. I took my kids trout fishing here in the school holidays 20 years ago. The children are guaranteed a catch from the kids pond.

Times have changed and sadly the children are now locked out of this activity unless the parents have vaccine passports. We ignored the whole vaccine passport mess by avoiding the DOC trout centre.

We wandered around the hatchery facility, looked through the underwater trout viewing chamber and took a stroll along the banks of the picturesque Tongariro River.
