Lake Tikitapu, affectionately known as Blue Lake, is a local favourite and well known to regular visitors to Rotorua.
Popular for swimming, boating and water sports, this small circular lake has an easy circuit walking track and links to the mountain bike trail network in Whakarewarewa Forest.

The name comes from Māori history. Tikitapu is a sacred greenstone necklace, believed to have been worn and lost in the lake by the daughter of a high-ranking chief.

Facilities include beach areas at both ends of the lake, a boat ramp, barbecues and picnic areas, children’s playground and toilets.

Between Lake Tikitapu and the neighbouring Lake Rotokakahi (Green Lake) is a lookout point, accessible from the car park, where you can see the contrasting colours of the two lakes.

Lake Tikitapu hosts a number of sporting events throughout the year, so if you’re bringing your boat, check out any lake closures before you plan your trip.

Facilities include playground, barbecues, picnic tables, toilet facilities, and boat ramp. Dogs are permitted and must be kept on lead.

Remember to take care of the environment and to dispose of rubbish and dog waste responsibly.
