Beneath New Zealand

Embark on an expedition to discover if the iconic Pink and White Terraces survived, and discover just how much volcanism we live alongside and how it can enhance our lives.

Travel back in time before New Zealand separated from Gondwana, where volcanoes ruled the world and sculpted our nation. Then discover volcanism's current impact on experience of locals and visitors.

It’s the future that concentrates the minds of scientists in Auckland. New Zealand’s largest city is constructed on an active volcanic field with approximately 53 volcanoes. The city could be the site of a major volcanism event at any time.
