What to know

The most colourful geothermal field in the country - the Champagne Pool with its orange arsenic rim and the acid-green Devil's Bath. THE LADY KNOX GEYSER ERUPTS AT 10:15 BECAUSE SOMEONE PUTS SOAP IN IT, which is worth knowing before you rearrange your morning around it. The smell of sulphur is constant and gets into clothes.
