The Department of Conservation Visitor Centre at Whakapapa Village will soon have an official i-Site.
The nine-month trial scheduled to start next month is a New Zealand first and will see trained i-Site staff provide visitor information and booking services from the visitor centre on Mt Ruapehu.
Ruapehu i-Site manager Kim Treen said visitors could get expert local advice for all of Ruapehu as well book travel, accommodation and experiences for Ruapehu and anywhere else around New Zealand.
"The Ruapehu i-Site and DoC already have a well-established relationship with DoC staff working from the Ohakune i-Site," she said.
"The DoC Whakapapa Visitor Centre will now be a 'one stop shop' offering a full package of visitor information and booking services, with i-Site staff on duty seven days a week every day that the visitor centre is open."
