Erupting Mount Tarawera on New Zealand's North Island created at 10 June 1886 the 17 kilometers long Waimangu Volcanic Rift Valley. It is now the youngest geothermal ecosystem with a wide variety of volcanic features like the Cathedral Rocks with hot steam coming out. Der Ausbruch des Tarawera-Vulkans am 10. Juni 1886 schuf auf der Nordinsel Neuseelands das Waimangu-Vulkantal. Das ist das jüngste geothermale Ökosystem der Welt, in dem eine Reihe vulkanischer Erscheinungen wie der Kathedrale, einem Felsen, aus dem heißer Dampf strömt.
