This is a great watch, as the huge amount of released Waikato River transforms the dry river bed into a turbulent rushing flood.... and it was used in Lord of the rings too

Oh wao, the place is like haven, amazing view with awesome river. If you guys go there please reach there at 12 pm or bit earlier, because they release water from the dam and after the river gets full and looks amazing. It takes a bit time to get the full but if you wait for it, it'll be worth.
Very cool, good view
Great views, and easy to get to! Kids loved it. I'd recommend taking a few umbrellas for shade in the summer.
Beautiful, but also industrial! However, worth stopping by for a foto of the creek! Did not go to higher viewpoint...
Cool place
You can see the water being released from the dam upstream. However there seems to be another viewpoint closer to the rapids that we missed. There are a couple of parking spots available as well.
Check the dam release times before you go. Good parking and great viewing areas. Very exciting when the water gushes through. An excellent place to take visitors...and free.
