The map
About this Taupo map poster
Taupō sits on the north-eastern shore of Lake Taupō, New Zealand's largest lake. The lake fills a caldera formed by a series of huge volcanic eruptions. On a map, the town is small next to the water. Its streets curve along the shoreline and climb gently into suburbs, with the open lake stretching south beyond the edge of the frame.
The Waikato River, New Zealand's longest, leaves the lake at Taupō and flows north through the town. A short way downstream it narrows through the rocky channel at Huka Falls. The river crossing and the lakefront are the key parts of the town plan. Holiday streets, parks and the airport spread across the rising ground behind them.
A Taupo map poster brings together a broad sheet of water, a winding river and a neat grid of residential streets. The lakeshore drawn in black and white makes a clean, confident edge. It is a map that immediately tells you the town exists because of the lake it sits beside.

Waikato River outlet
The Waikato leaves the lake right at the town and flows north. It is one of the few places where a major river begins inside a town map.
Huka Falls channel
Downstream, the river squeezes through a narrow gorge at Huka Falls. On the map, the river visibly narrows and changes character.

Why Taupo
A map that means something
Taupō means holidays, fishing, first swims and long drives across the central North Island for many New Zealanders and visitors. This map keeps that lake on the wall. Personalise the title and date to mark a family bach, a race or a year spent by the water.
Five styles are available: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Blueprint suits the lake well. Download HD files for $9 in six sizes with no watermark, or order a matte printed poster with an optional wooden frame.
