You’ll hear the Huka Falls well before you see them – it’s the sound of nearly a quarter of a million litres of water per second erupting from a natural gorge and thundering 11m into the Waikato River below. This attraction is free to view and can be accessed via a 10-minute car ride, the 1.5-hour (return) Huka Falls Walk (Starting in Spa Park) or even by jet boat with the team at Huka Falls Jet.
