See the valley like never before, with paths, geysers and landscapes illuminated in a spectrum of light. Journey from the depths of darkness into the world of light as Marama amplifies the beauty of our geothermal wonderland.

This hosted, carefully curated night-time walking experience blends storytelling, artistry and sound. The music of local artist Maisey Rika weaves throughout, guiding you from the festival-like entrance, past interactive artworks, and into the valley where ten unique scenes are brought to life in light.

Pause at the Terrace to enjoy a sweet treat or drink (available for purchase) while taking in views of the magnificent Pohutu Geyser. The trail concludes with a farewell beneath the glow of Marama (the moon), as you pass through the traditional setting of Pikirangi Village.

Allow around 60 minutes to explore this 1.5km track at your own pace. Please note: some visual effects may be intense and could cause discomfort for guests with light sensitivity or motion sickness. Comfortable footwear is recommended. Due to unpaved paths, this experience is not suitable for wheelchairs or prams.

Operating hours: Wednesday to Sunday, with gates open for four hours each evening. Final entry is one hour before closing.
