“Popular swimming spot with locals and an ideal picnic spot!”
The stunning staircase Owharoa Falls are nestled in the heart of the Karangahake Gorge. Ideal for a picnic stop while doing the Hauraki Rail Trail, or a photo op detour. It is a popular swimming spot with locals however care must be taken as it is prone to strong currents and hazardous features such as snags and slippery rocks and deep holes.
Reviews
Even during a serious drought this was still a cute waterfall to help break up the first leg of the drive.
