Description

The Kerikeri River, at the Wharepuke Falls, and the larger Rainbow Falls, tumbles over basalt lava fields, which flowed into the river valley following volcanic eruptions some 200 million years ago. You can see interesting rock formations close to the Wharepuke Falls. At the base of these falls is a popular swimming-hole. Pedestrians are welcome to cross the privately owned access drive but do not drive in. Park on the road. Cycles are prohibited. Dogs are not permitted. No camping or overnight parking allowed.
