Not far down the road from Tawhai Falls car park is another easy walk called the Mounds Walk.
The walk is along a track and up a short series of steps, to the top of one of the mounds.
From here there are fantastic views of the volcanoes and surrounding landscape.
The mounds are believed to have been formed by debris avalanches during Ruapehu’s periods of volcanic activity thousands of years ago. Read the signboard below to learn more about the mounds.
We had our "wefies" taken with the mounds before moving on to our accommodation for the night.
