Huka Falls is a five minute drive from the town center and is one of the most visited natural attractions in New Zealand. If you're feeling energetic, you can also walk to the falls via the Spa Thermal Park Track (about 3 km each way). The sound of the falls can be heard well before you see them - it's the sound of nearly a quarter of a million litres of water per second erupting from a natural gorge and thundering 11m into the Waikato River below. This incredible waterfall is one of the most-visited natural attractions in New Zealand. You can also take a jet boat trip or river cruise to the base of the falls.
