Pseudopanax at English Wikipedia · CC BY 3.0

A scenic reserve with a track that follows the Kaituna River past Okere Falls and the Tutea Falls, the tallest commercially rafted waterfall in the world. There are lookouts, a small cave and good views of rafts dropping the falls. It is a short walk but has steps and slippery sections.

Good to know

  • Walk it in the morning when rafting is running
  • Wear shoes with grip, the track is damp
  • Look for the old hydro station ruins
