Rainbow Falls - Kerikeri
Rainbow Falls in Kerikeri are a beautiful and accessible natural attraction. The 400-meter walk from the town center leads you to these impressive 27-meter falls, with a delightful swimming hole at the base. The Rainbow Falls Walk is quick, taking just 10 minutes, but it connects to the longer Kerikeri River Track, a 3.5 km journey that takes around 1.5 hours. This track meanders along the north bank of the river, showcasing kiwi habitat and native trees like young kauri and totara.
Combine your visit with a stop at Kerikeri Basin, where you can explore historic sites like the Stone Store, Mission House, St James Church, Rewa’s Village, and Kororipo Pa. With the pleasant weather of the “Winterless North,” it’s a perfect day out.
