Raukawa Falls

Raukawa Falls



Raukawa Falls is an attractively wide waterfall that's probably about 15m tall and 50m wide. It's easily seen from a signed pullout along the road (SH4) between Raetihi and Wanganui. From the pullout, there is a viewing platform allowing you to look below at the impressive waterfall in the distance. Make sure you stop and check out this waterfall if you're in the area.

If you're extending your stay in the area, you can also experience the Whanganui River (the longest navigable river in New Zealand) as well as the city of Wanganui.
