The three main mountains of the central North Island volcanic plateau are: Ngauruhoe, Ruapehu, and Tongariro. A fourth mountain, though much smaller than the other three but also important to Maori, is Pihanga, which is known as the beautiful mountain. It was for the love of the female mountain Pihanga that Tongariro fought with Taranaki.
