January 18, 2021Rocky ,good shoes needed.
December 30, 2020Awesome reward from the top
December 28, 2020December 27, 2020The trail is a bit steep but the summit is worth the hike. It is most beautiful up in the summit. It was breath taking. The summit is a combi of river, boulders, mini falls, view of the valley and plain, strong winds making the main falls go back up and creates some sort of rainful. Just amazing. Worth the hike. Plenty and spaceous parking area. There is also heaps of benches for resting and eating.
December 25, 2020Fantastic
December 2, 2020The most beautiful falls I have ever seen so far
November 24, 2020Done this hike on my birthday, still is probably the best Hike I have done. A lot of climbing - went on a wet day which was scary but amazing. View of the waterfall is amazing and beautiful. And then your get to the top - even more beautiful!! recommend.
November 6, 2020The track is not that exciting but the view from the top of the waterfall is one of the best views I ever had. Totally recommend!
October 31, 2020Very enjoyable and nice views from the top. Steep enough and you will know you’ve done it!
October 24, 2020October 14, 2020it is a beautiful trail walk . we went up with 5 kids under 11. they loved it and made it! all it was 10.6 km to the top and back.
October 9, 2020low level of fitnesss needed to complete. Constant incline, but enjoyable to do if you're wanting a quick hike for the day. doc time is about 1.5hr each way. Can easily be done in under that for a reasonable fitness level. 50min up and 40 Down on a good day with not many people around.
October 8, 2020October 5, 2020Beautiful track. Trail is well marked and the views at the top are stunning. Lots of car parks available
October 4, 2020Lookout is enough, not necessary to hike until the summit. You don't see the fall actually and the view is not Amazing. But the walk is in the forest so it keeps the fresh. Not a lot of birds, just Seen some fantails and heard a Tui. Can be a bit muddy but the track is ok.
October 3, 2020I love this trail. There are so many beautiful spots to stop and swim. It's not an easy track and would not recommend for anyone with knee issues. There's a lot of rocks and roots so I would definitely recommend wearing trail shoes for extra grip as parts of the track can be slippery.
September 26, 2020Did this a couple years ago, lots of steps, steady incline most of the way. Got to lower look out and the view of the falls was lovely, kept going to the stop of the falls, very muddy but the view of the valley from the top was worth the slipping and sliding
September 22, 2020I recommend turning back once you reach the top of the falls. Beyond that point there isn't much to see, and the trail just ends at a crossing of trails randomly in the woods, at which point you just turn around and go right back th best you came. If you're thinking of taking the old Maori path for the return trip... I'd advise against it. There's a sign warning that it's steep and that the trail isn't maintained, and it's the truth. I ended up using my hands to help me down most of the way.
September 21, 2020Had a really good experience here today. Looking forward to do every year.
September 13, 2020one of my fave tracks,from the lower lookout gets pretty grueling but it's over quickly,always windy at the top not suitable for drones as the water doesn't fall it rises,drone was fine from lower lookout just navigate it through some trees,but u can get some good shots
September 12, 2020Stunning view from the top. Did the walk with a 5, 8 year old and toddler in back pack. On our list to do again.
September 8, 2020August 30, 2020August 15, 2020It was fun, family friendly, muddy near the top of the falls. Going upstairs was tiring
August 9, 2020Really great hike, will amazing views at both the midway and summit points!! Highly recommend doing it on a clear sunny day too
August 1, 2020Lovely native bush with large boulders and streams. The waterfall is fantastic with panoramic views from the top. There are tracks at the top as well which are a nice walk along the river and through the bush, managed to find a second waterfall which was very picturesque.
July 30, 2020awesome, great walk
July 25, 2020Really great trail with summit options, gets the heart pumping and the falls are spectacular
