Walking and driving instructions
|
Hays Creek Falls is a roughly 35-40 minutes' drive away from Auckland City. The road surface is always sealed. If you drive from Auckland City, travel south on the SH1 motorway until the Papakura Exit, where turn left into Beach Rd which becomes Settlement Rd, and follow it until the intersection with Dominion Rd. Turn right into Dominion Rd then turn left into Hunua Rd. Hunua Rd is a winding road which goes to Hunua Village. Follow this road for the next 4km until you see the waterfall on your left. There is a small parking area next to the waterfall's top - leave your car here. There are no facilities there. An easy un-official track leads to the upper waterfalls lookout. It takes just 30 seconds to reach the top of the waterfall, and the track is suitable for people of all abilities. There is no official track to the waterfall base. It's your own risk if you decide to descend there. Note: ideally you combine a trip to this waterfall with the Hunua Falls visit. |
