Hot pools
Was fun but the little fella wanted to have a jump and a dive in but unfortunately the deeper pool was closed at the time of our visit. Great place to stop for a couple of hours for our trip from chch to Queenstown
From Tekapo - Tekapo Springs - Hot Pool Entry
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stop with us on the journey from Christchurch to Queenstown. We’re sorry your little one missed out on the deeper pool during your visit. Just to let you know, our kids’ pool and deep pool do close a bit earlier than the main pools each day, as part of our safety and operational schedule. We really appreciate your understanding and are happy to hear you still had a fun and relaxing time overall. We hope to welcome you back again on your next trip through!

A 1/2 Day at Tekapo Springs
The pass is for a day so good value. "Seniors" are over 60s, which was great too. Usually 65! There is a nice cafe, plenty of sun beds around, and of course all the pools. The water was lovely, but be careful of slipping as you walk between the pools. I saved 6 big bumble bees from drowning while I was there, so that was a sad reality of "blue" pools. The changing facilities are great too, good showers etc. For disabled, you can drive right up to the door which is handy, no need to walk the stairs. Nice views from up there too. A great way to spend a half day. I loved it.
