Best Scenic spot in New Zealand

A	Alex Tjahjana on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nice place to look at the majestic of the Huka Falls. It's not so close to the falls itself, so you can see how the fall fits into its surrounding. At the very far end, you can see part of The Huka Lodge. There's also a few trek along the river towards another lookout, as well as towards the fall. Just be aware that the parking space is very limited.
N	Nigel on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Definitely worth calling in at for a stunning view of Huka Falls. You can park at the top and just have a quick look or take a 15 minute walk to a lower viewing area as well.
R	Robert Cunningham on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This, as predicted years ago, is a must do attraction in Taupo area. You can drive up to a parking lot within a few meters of the lookout, or you can do a 1h30min walk from the walkway start along the river
M	Mike Cole on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome water fall and great view. Really worth a visit. Watch the car park as it fills up quickly. Also the gates close at 6.30pm. Some lovely walking tracks there as well, one which works its way to spa park where the natural hot springs are so bring your togs.
C	Cavin Soo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent viewing spot by the road side. There is a path to go down and get closer to the falls but we didn't have a chance to do so as our little boy vomitted and we had to go back to the hotel to change him. That walk is only 15min long.
K	Kui Kantavee W. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 15 minutes walk to the lookout. Feel proud when reaching the spot. Take a nice shot of Huka Falls. You can hear the tides and feel their power. When sun is shining, the water turns more and more blue and it's amazing!
W	William Lin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a lookout point to see the Huka Falls from a distance. I would recommend checking this site out first, before driving down to the Huka Falls carpark and bridge looking over the water, as it provides you with perspective on how powerful the water is flow past.
J	Jude B on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Must do when visiting Taupo. If you have never been here, your missing out. The rapids are breathtaking, never ceases to impress. There are a few tracks here both for walking or biking. Ample of parking available, but I would imagine it would be extremely busy here during peak season of holidays. Specific parking available onsite for motorhomes.
