We drove down a track to a car park. There was a 2.5 hour return walk to a waterfall so why not try it. It was a long walk and we went down a wrong path within feet of the waterfall but it was all worth it. There was a school party there and we chatted with the teachers. This area had been an experimental replanting area. The bush had all been ripped out so it wasreplaced with different trees from around the world to see what would work well. Canadian pine trees really grew well hence the alpine look of this area.
Lots of photos at the waterfall. A teacher took some of us there too.
This afternoon it's a trip to the hot pools again. It is very hot about 25/26 I would think. Not been hot like this in a long time but the weather is forecast to have a storm over the weekend when we plan to be on the boat to North Island!
