172 McLaren Falls Road, Lower Kaimai, Western Bay of Plenty

McLaren Falls

Western Bay of Plenty Walks

The location is a popular swimming hole. The waterfall is the starting point for kayaking and white-water rafting on the Wairoa River. Rafting is limited to those summer Sundays when water is released. (The river is controlled by a hydro dam)

Dave Cox comments:This place is the best! If your going to be in Tauranga, or the Mount, you have to check it out!!, you can either swim around the bridge, take a walk up stream or down stream, and have a good look at a major part of what NZ has to offer, it’s a real gem, honestly, have a good look around, there is something there for every one!
