Nestled in a peaceful bush setting, the Tongariro National Trout Centre provides a peek into the world of trout at Taupo.

It has played an important role over the years in educating people about the fishery, and raising awareness among the public of the importance of freshwater conservation and the need to create a sustainable
fishery resource.

Here, your Children are able to enjoy a truly unique experience: The opportunity to flyfish for Rainbow Trout. Our purpose built Kids-only fishing pond is stocked with up to 4,000 trout! Giving your child a safe place to learn the art of flyfishing. They are guaranteed to catch a fish that they can then have smoked in New Zealand’s own Manuka Honey.

While you wait for your child’s Trout to be smoked, you can wander through the Genesis Energy Freshwater Aquarium and hatchery facility, look through an underwater trout viewing chamber or take a stroll along the Tongariro River.  The River Walk Visitor Centre is open to the public, full of interesting displays about the Taupo trout fishery and freshwater sustainability.

Afterwards, your child can collect their freshly smoked fish to eat, or take away with them on the road along with their certificate for their catch and an awesome experience to cherish for years to come.
