Geocache Description:

This cache is placed just off the Taupo walkway between Huka Falls and Aratiaitia. Enjoy this lovely walk along the Waikato River and past the new suspension bridge.

Park at Huka Falls and see this famous NZ landmark. The track is well formed and suitable for walking or MTB’s. If you head further down the track from the cache you will get great view of the iconic Wairakei Geothermal Power Station, Huka Jet and the Prawn Park.
It can be reached by walking from either end, but it is closer to Huka Falls. Recent forest logging has damaged the final 80 m of the track to the GZ, use the additional waypoint for entry to the GZ. Changing the terrain rating to account for the rough access to the GC. (Be aware that the Huka Falls parking closes at night so don’t get locked in, access is still allowed)
Cache is a 600ml container.

Please be carefull near the cache if you have young children with you.

FTF go to Taupotiger with Roobi a close second.
