Rainbow Falls

Rainbow Falls as seen from the trail



Rainbow Falls is a nice 27m waterfall that looks eerily like
Whangarei Falls in Whangarei. Flowing on the Kerikeri River, you can experience this falls at the end of the 4km (one-way) Kerikeri River Track, which also passes by the 5m Wharepoke Falls as well as the Fairy Pools. However, the easiest way to access the falls is to drive to the waterfall's car park and walk for about 10-15 minutes to either its top or its base.

It makes for a pleasant diversion away from the quaint town of Kerikeri or away from the coastal scenery of Bay of Islands. It's one of the better waterfalls you'll find in Northland.
