As the raging water hits the bottom of the Huka Falls along the Waikato River near Taupo, NZ white foam explodes across the surface. Once the river settles down, the foam disperses and the water then becomes the unique blue coloring that is seen in this picture through the froth.
Before the Waikato River reaches this point, it spans about 100 meters across and then suddenly narrows to an opening that is only about 15 to 20 meters wide. This is where the force of the water explodes before dropping over a twenty meter volcanic ledge creating the beauty of the Huka Falls.
Viewpoints above the Huka Falls are excellent as you can stand above and watch the massive amount of water crash over the cliff with a thundering sound that is...
... like no other. For the quieter approach, follow the trail along the river that starts about thirty minutes walking time up stream and explore the NZ forests while listening to the roar of the Huka Falls become slowly louder as you get closer.
The Huka Falls on the North Island of NZ are fascinating to see and thousands of tourists visit each year to see their natural beauty. The more adventurous type will test out their kayaking skills over the Huka Falls and venture down river amongst the raging water. Most people stay ashore and admire the beauty of the Huka Falls and the NZ wilderness that surrounds the area.
