About
In 1969 the local community put a proposal to the County Council of Rotorua to build a hot thermal pool. Permission was subsequently granted, and after various fundraising efforts and approximately 4000 hours of voluntary labour, the pool complex was officially opened in 1972.

"A great place to take the caravan is Waikite Valley Thermal Pools, just out of Rotorua. You can spend the day lounging around in the natural hot springs — they’re so gorgeous. There's a little café there, too. It's one of my favorite places."
