Sightseeing
The 153-metre-high Wairere Falls are one of the highest in the North Island. The falls offer breath-taking views over the Waikato region and a walk through lush native bush. The 3-4 hour return journey to the top takes you through groves of nikau, puriri and kohekohe, while the shorter journey to the bottom of the falls offers equally rewarding views.
