Pullman Rotorua - Luxury hotel - Hell's Gate Geothermal Park & Mud Spa

Hell's Gate Geothermal Park & Mud Spa

Hell’s Gate is the only place in New Zealand where you can soak and relax in an outdoor mud bath, used for generations by Māori to ease joint and muscle pain. Get down and dirty in a mud bath or unwind in a sulphur spa overlooking a spectacular geothermal landscape, before cooling off in a beautiful spring-fed waterfall and cold plunge pool. As the temperature begins to drop, Hell’s Gate is offering the ultimate winter indulgence.
