WAIHAHA HUT
The track follows the Waihaha River through shrubland before entering dense podocarp forest then to the Waihaha Hut. It covers a variety of terrain, high cliffs, very scenic valley, luxurious vegetation, and a good view of the river gorge and circular pools scoured in limestone.

Waihora Lagoon Walk
The lagoon, a 10 minute walk from the car park, is one of the most beautiful spots in the park, surrounded by tall rimu and kahikatea.
The walk to the lagoon is very well graded and you are quickly surrounded by amazing mature native forest.

There are some very delicate plant species reside in the waters.
