Nga Rangi-i-totongia a Tamatekapua (Rangitoto Island)
Rangitoto is a small shield volcano with small scoria cones on top. It is the site of the most recent of Auckland’s volcanic eruptions, around 600 years ago, when Māori already inhabited the area. It is also the largest of the Auckland eruptions, equalling the volume of all previous eruptions combined.
