Craters of the Moon Thermal Area (or Karapiti in Māori language) is a region with geothermal activity north of Taupo, New Zealand. It is a part of Wairakei, the largest geothermal field in New Zealand, with a surface area of about 25 km2, which lies in the Taupo Volcanic Zone.The name springs from the many hydrothermal eruption craters, which are in part barren and which have bright colours. Combined with the numerous steam vents, constantly shifting, collapsing and reforming giving the whole area desolate appearance, and the sulphur smell, the whole area has an “unearthly” atmosphere. The craters are a relatively recent feature of the area and appeared as a result of human activity in the region.

  • Craters of the Moon Thermal Area (or Karapiti in Māori language) is a region with geothermal activity north of Taupo, New Zealand. It is a part of Wairakei, the largest geothermal field in New Zealand, with a surface area of about 25 km2, which lies in the Taupo Volcanic Zone.The name springs from the many hydrothermal eruption craters, which are in part barren and which have bright colours. Combined with the numerous steam vents, constantly shifting, collapsing and reforming giving the whole area desolate appearance, and the sulphur smell, the whole area has an “unearthly” atmosphere. The craters are a relatively recent feature of the area and appeared as a result of human activity in the region. The site is Crown Land, administered by the Department of Conservation, with help from the Craters of the Moon Trust, a volunteer organisation that provides information for visitors and passive vehicle security.

  • 달분화구 지열지대(Craters of the Moon Thermal Area) 또는 크라피티(마오리어: Karapiti)는 뉴질랜드 북섬 타우포 북쪽 지열 활동이 활발한 지역을 일컫는다. 이곳은 뉴질랜드에서 가장 큰 지열 지대인 와이라케이(Wairakei)의 일부이며, 타우포 화산지대에 약 25km2의 면적으로 펼쳐져 있다. 이름은 수 많은 열분출 분화구에서 따왔으며, 황무지로 밝은 색을 띠고 있다. 수 많은 증기를 뿜는 구멍과 결합하여, 꾸준히 변하고, 붕괴되어 전 지역의 외관을 황폐화시켰으며, 유황 냄새로 전 지역이 지구가 아닌 듯한 분위기를 자아낸다. 분화구들은 각각 지역마다 최근의 특징을 가지고 있으며, 이 지역에서 인간활동의 결과로 등장했다. 그러한 곳으로는 〈크라운 랜드〉가 있는데, 달분화구 고문단의 도움으로 운영되는 보존국에 의해 관리가 되며, 관광객들에게 정보와 수동적인 차량 안전을 제공하는 자원봉사 단체이다.

  • Karapiti (of, zoals het meestal wordt genoemd Craters of the Moon), is een gebied met geothermische activiteit ten noorden van Taupo, op het Noordereiland van Nieuw-Zeeland.Het gebied heet in het Engels voluit: "Craters of the Moon Thermal Area" (het thermisch gebied van de Kraters van de Maan). De naam "Karapiti" is Māori.Het gebied maakt deel uit van . Dat is het grootste geothermische veld ("geothermical field") van Nieuw-Zeeland, met een oppervlakte van ca. 25 km2. Wairakei ligt in het Vulkanisch gebied Taupo (Taupo Volcanic Zone, TVZ).De Engelse naam, die het gebied nog niet zo heel lang draagt, heeft te maken met de kraters van hydrothermale oorsprong. Die kraters zijn voor een deel onbegroeid en hebben bijzondere kleuren. Bovendien ontwikkelt zich in het gebied veel stoom. Men zou kunnen zeggen dat er een enigszins "onaardse" sfeer hangt.De kraters zijn van betrekkelijk recente oorsprong en het gevolg van menselijke activiteit in de omgeving. Het gebied wordt beheerd door het Department of Conservation, met ondersteuning door vrijwilligers van de Craters of the Moon Trust. (nl)
