Photo & Vacation Spot

Near Taupo, New Zealand in Wairakei Park, the blue colored waterfall creating the beauty of Huka Falls rushes over the 11 meter drop into the pools below.

The waterfall, known as Huka Falls in Wairakei Park near Taupo, New Zealand, cascades over the rocky ledge which has gone from about 100 meters across before reaching this point to squishing through an opening of about 15-20 meters. Beneath the thick white foam of the river, the beautiful blue coloring of the water becomes visible before it hits the pool below.

The river eventually calms farther downstream and the unique blue colored water intensifies. Huka Falls and the Waikato River are this color due to the clear water reflecting the blue light with the air bubbles magnifying the color.

Located in the Wairakei Tourist Park near Taupo, New Zealand, this waterfall attracts thousands of tourists every year. Scenic viewing platforms and a footbridge are set up around Huka Falls making it easier to photograph this fast and dangerous river.
