Hot tub is perfect
“Highly recommend! Two Rivers Ohakune is a beautiful B&B where you fall asleep to the sound of a river and wake up to beautiful fields and hills outside your window. I stayed here while doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, and the hot tub after the hike is perfect. The hosts gave helpful tips for restaurants and for the hike. Would definitely stay here again!” - KW
