Sunday 13th March
Karetu Stream Waterfalls
(Cole's Falls), King Country
Grade: Easy +
These amazing falls cascade some 80 - 100 metres down several levels of rockface.
They are nestled on private land in the Mairoa District (Te Kuiti).
We walk across farmland a little down hill to start. Lunch stop is on an open grassy area by the top fall. A scramble down through the bush to the swimming hole is an option. Return we will retrace the way we came approximately 1 hour each way.
Usual gear - parka, good footwear, lunch and a smile.
Leave Hamilton Memorial Park River Road at 9am (If you want to carpool contact Adua on 843 3375) or meet at junction of Poarure/Mairoa Road and Main South Highway opposite Te Kuiti airfield at approximately 10.30.
