“A gentle 30 min walk through bush and over farmland to the beautiful Omaru Falls. On Omaru Road, clearly signposted from SH4.”
Cross the stile and walk across the farm track for a few hundred metres. There is another stile to cross before the walking track enters bush filled with ferns and young rimu.
The track follows a stream before crossing a swing bridge and back onto farmland. Follow the grassy track and orange markers.
There is an ideal picnic spot next to the river and a small terraced waterfall. Continue up the grassy track to the falls lookout. The falls drop about 45 m and are most impressive after times of heavy rain.
Getting there
