Day 6, National Park

As much as I wanted to hike Modor I have to be realistic. It's raining heavy with thunderstorms forecast this afternoon. Visibility is down to zero.

As an alternative we visited Gollum's Pool (Tawhai Falls). It was a short walk off the road, and the rain eased long enough for us to see them. You could hear the falls and the rapids long before we saw them. The rain certainly helped with the volume of water flowing.

Tomorrow we plan on returning when the weather is better to hike to another waterfall before another road trip to Taupō.Læs mere
