This cache is in the car park at the start of the Tarawera Falls. Please remember to switch your lights off and lock your car, and there is a toilet available. The track is normally wheel chair friendly, but there is a tree across the path at one point.
The Tarawera Falls are the most spectacular falls in the Bay of Plenty.
The Tarawera River plunges 65 metres down a sheer cliff face before tumbling down bush lined rapids.
Vehicle access to Tarawera Falls and Outlet is along forest roads, which requires an access permit, costing $5.00 per vehicle.
Directions and Permits are available from the Kawerau Information Centre on Plunket Street, Kawerau, open each day between 9.00 am and 4.00 pm.
Remember to have head lights on since there are logging trucks and hunters in the forest.
There is none or limited cell phone coverage in the forest
