Taupō Domain Playground sits at Story Place on Lake Taupō’s lakefront, a destination play space themed on Ngāti Tūwharetoa legends where each structure represents a different maunga (Tongariro the centrepiece). The space packs in climbing frames, slides, an in-ground trampoline, agility courses for older kids, mini wobblers for toddlers and a water-play area. Picnic tables, toilets and lakefront parking off Story Place and Ferry Road round it out.

Next to the big park! Great bike tracks with a few picnic tables. Lots of fun activities for both little and older kids. There’s also a public toilet nearby, right next to the water and some restaurants.
