Te Puia Springs is interesting because
of the thermal activity. Partly on account
of the springs, which were considered
medicinal, a hospital was built early last
century. After being modernised several
times it is now a general purpose hospital
administered by the Ngāti Porou Health
arm. The small but attractive settlement
has a Visitor Information Centre, the
well-stocked Te Puia Springs Store,
catering for your every need, with clean
public toilets next door, or why not stay
a while at the newly renovated Te Puia
Springs Hotel. Just north there is also a
pleasant golf course. An interesting area
worth more than a passing glance. An old AA Road Sign
“Stop & Soak in the Springs”
