### What's nearby

- ![A few kilometres downstream from Lake Taupo the river changes to some rapids for a short distance.  When the rapids finish there is a drop which creates a waterfall. It all ends with this scene which is stunning. Only a 30 second walk from the car park to the river this shot was taken about a 5 minute walk further downstream on the main track at sunrise.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6052675/3e9386a9-4a68-4d66-8ef7-cf1789a774db.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high)
