Huka Falls, the Waikato River, New Zealand

Huka Falls

 
Here is a little film of the Huka Falls which we visited recently, it is the
most visited of the natural features in New Zealand.  This was believable as
even at nine o'clock in the morning buses were drawing in and many
different languages could be heard amongst the viewers.
The Huka Falls is in Wairakei Village just North of Taupo and is where
the Waikato River which drains Lake Taupo narrows to 15 metres through
granite rock.  32 - 270 cubic metres of water per second pass through the
narrow gorge
