Huka Falls in Taupo is the incredible site where the Waikato River comes barreling down a gorge at 220,000 litres per second and over 2 small waterfalls to carry on its journey.

Huka Falls is one of New Zealand's most popular tourist destinations with its exhilarating opportunity to stand above the outstanding blue water rushing past so quickly .. the rush and fear is so worth it!

The falls are located just before Taupo off State Highway 1 on Huka Falls Road. From the car park cross the overbridge and from there you can walk to several different viewing platforms. The photo shown here is taken from the first overbridge at sunset.

I used a 6 stop filter and 0.9GND filter on my lens to smooth out the water in this shot and used my wide angle lens
