New Zealand Trout Pool Falls, Okere, North Island
Known as both the Kaituna Falls and Trout Pool Falls, this waterfall is one of three along the Kaituna River, near Rotorua (the others being the Okere Falls, and Tutea Falls). This section of the Kaituna River is popular with rafters and kayakers, due to the number of rapids and waterfalls. The term “kaituna” translates to “eat eels”, with the river having been an important source of food for the Maori people.
