Mangawhero Falls

Mangawhero Falls



Lord of the Rings fans may be interested to note that Mangawhero Falls was the scenic location of the Forbidden Pool, where Gollum was caught by Faramir with the help of Frodo. At least I think this is the case just from inferring from my Two Towers DVD which stated this waterfall was a film location.

Regardless of whether or not you're in to Lord of the Rings, you'll find this 25m waterfall a pleasant attraction on the slopes of Mt Ruapehu in Tongariro National Park
