Mt Ruapehu is the highest volcanic mountain in the North Island, and is an active volcano, notable for its crater lake. It is relatively active, with an average of 50 years or so between major eruptions, but it has had about 50 minor events since 1945. It first erupted about 250 000 years ago, and is part of the Taupo Volcanic Zone. It has ski fields on its slopes in winter, and volcanic warnings are part of the safety feature of these skifields.
