[New Zealand] North Island Tour Huka Falls

I went to New Zealand's North Island. This time, I rented a car, so I was able to explore some hard-to-reach spots. Huka Falls, known as one of the world's most powerful waterfalls. Huka Falls is located where the Waikato River narrows from approximately 100 meters to 15 meters. It's a spectacular waterfall where 220 cubic meters of water cascades down per second. The volume of water is enough to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool in 11 seconds, and the sound of the waterfall can be heard from miles away. There's an 8-meter mini-cascade at the top of the falls, but the most impressive is the main waterfall, which drops 6 meters. This waterfall is characterized by its crystal-clear turquoise water and bubbling bubbles, captivating visitors. 📍Access Approximately 5 minutes' drive from Taupo City. Car: Approximately 5 minutes' drive from Taupo City. Free parking, large. Toilets available. •Jet Boat Tour Enjoy the thrill of getting up close and personal with the falls. • Walking There are several trails around the falls, allowing you to enjoy nature while strolling. You can easily see them from the parking lot, so it's a great way to enjoy the view. 🙏 It was my first time seeing such a powerful and beautiful waterfall. #ZeroYenTravel2025Autumn #Tourism #NewZealandStunningViews

Huka Falls, a famous waterfall on New Zealand's North Island

Huka Falls

I went to New Zealand's North Island. Cathedral Cove in Coromandel was amazing with its beautiful scenery. (The first photo shows a 30-minute hike to the coast, but the nature is so beautiful it cleanses the soul and the air is so fresh that the time flies! New Zealand's traffic rules are roughly the same as Japan's, so it's easy to drive even if you rent a car. However, each location is far away, so it took about 2-3 hours to get from one place to the other. There are mountain roads on the way to Coromandel, so I recommend driving during daylight hours. The third and fourth photos show Waitomo Caves, where the caves are mysterious and there are tours available, so I recommend it. The fifth photo shows Huka Falls, a beautiful waterfall. Wherever you go, the nature is so beautiful and magnificent that it helped to soothe your worries and make you forget all about your worries.)
