Option: Shuttle Bus to top trails
On our seventh (last) day in Rotorua, Greg and I decided to try out the shuttle bus (runs Tue, Thur, Sat + Sun) to the top of the trails.
You can gain approx 500 metres in altitude to some of the best trails in a 20 min bus ride. Tickets are $ 30 for 5 rides (you can share tickets).
The HTFU boys and girls however rode the climb up Hill road...again...

Rotorua City route...around the geysers and hot springs
There is a well signposted track around all the hot thermal areas, only 5 mins from Rotorua's city centre
The sign warns that the crusty soil behind the fence may look stable, but is only 2 cm's thick with boiling water underneath....
