A great walk through forest until we eventually reached the "Indiana Jones" swing bridge - very scary! The falls are beautiful - well worth the trip.
Approx 40 min walk into spectacular falls. Parts of the track are hairy due to high rainfall in the area. Great swing bridge halfway along track. Not recommended for elderly or small children Enough adventure to keep teenagers engaged.
Depending on the season, there are up to 4 small creeks that need to be crossed to get to the waterfall. There's also a couple of steep parts along the way, and a swing bridge with a 1 person limit that's pretty cool. Other than that, it's a fairly easy walk to the falls. If you're lucky, you might see some four legged animals along the way. The falls themselves are beautiful and are well worth the walk.
Loved our early morning weekday hike to see the falls. It was a great way to start the day. The trail is mostly easy and crossing the swing bridge was fun. Didn't pass a single person on the trail, though we had read that it can get busy on weekends.
Great family walk, well worth it - the kids ranging in age from 6 to 14, all went swimming in the pools at the end (need close supervision though). The single person swing-bridge got quite congested - a 20 minute wait! A very easy gradient and great on a sunny day to enjoy the cool river.
The walk to the falls takes you across a great suspension bridge (one at a time) and the sight, whenyou reach the final point, is well worth the effort.
Correction to the information at the end of my review on 13 May 2014 - the cafe we stopped at for refreshments after our visit to the Falls was "Plan B Cafe" at Pohara.
A very easy walk the whole family can do, even in Winter! Gorgeous scenery with a breathtaking destination
Hot to start but much cooler in the bush. The falls are very spectacular and plenty of photo spots to shoot from. Quiet a popular place today too. Thoroughly recommend this walk. We did it an easy 25 minutes each way.
Lovely walk, great falls, but to get to them you have to cross a precarious one-person swing bridge with only slats for flooring. Good to get one's adrenalin flowing!
