The Chasm was really more of a nature walk than a waterfalling experience, but I’m including a write-up about it because there really was a waterfall within the narrow potholed gorge. The problem…

Humboldt Falls was one of the more dramatic waterfalls that we experienced in New Zealand. It was hard to believe that this waterfall seemed to be one of the better kept secrets in Fiordland…

Christie Falls was a roadside waterfall right besides a narrow single-lane bridge on the Milford Sound Highway. Because it was next to a sign that said “Falls Creek”, I’d imagine this waterfall…

Roaring Billy Falls was a fragmented waterfall that Julie and I didn’t expect to visit during our November 2004 trip to New Zealand as we hadn’t run across any literature about it prior to that trip..

Depot Creek Falls was a rather obscure and somewhat hidden cascade since it didn’t have any signs for it (unlike the other waterfalls we encountered in the Haast River Valley and Haast Pass vicinity..

Fantail Falls was the second of two pretty well-known waterfalls we encountered in the vicinity of Haast Pass as we were motoring through Mt Aspiring National Park between Queenstown and Glacier…

Thunder Creek Falls was one of the more well-known waterfalls in the Haast River Valley section of Mt Aspiring National Park. Julie and I sensed it was popular because both times we made a visit…

“Trident Creek Falls” was what I believe to be an unofficially named waterfall since it didn’t appear to have an official name on any of the maps that I had seen of New Zealand. That said, the…

Devils Punchbowl Falls was certainly a waterfall that Julie and I anticipated visiting ever since we came across it during our pre-trip research. We knew it was a prime feature of Arthur’s Pass…

Twin Creek Falls and Reid Falls were a pair of waterfalls in and around the Otira Viaduct, which was a cantilevered (elevated) highway officially opened in 1999 that was born out of necessity…

Avalanche Creek Falls was really my waterfalling excuse to talk about the Avalanche Peak Track even though Julie and I didn’t get the opportunity to do it during our November 2004 trip to New Zealand.

Carew Creek Falls (also referred to as just Carew Falls) was an early morning waterfall adventure for me as I left from the town of Greymouth. Typically, I’d imagine this could also be a detour…

I felt compelled to write this Bridal Veil Falls page (as opposed to integrating it with our Devils Punchbowl Falls page) largely because there was a bit of confusion concerning this waterfall…

Dorothy Falls was sort of an obscure waterfall that Julie and I made a short detour to see while we were spending the better part of a late afternoon around the town of Hokitika. According to the…

Five Mile Creek Falls was a waterfall that I didn’t know its name because the signage at this falls said “Waterfall Walk” and nothing more. It wasn’t until after the trip when I indirectly…

Bridal Veil Falls was one of the more picturesque waterfalls we had seen in the North Island. This particular waterfall was located near the surfing town of Raglan. What made the falls stand out…

Marokopa Falls was Julie’s kind of waterfall as it featured a satisfyingly classic block shape with a reported height of 30-35m. For us it was a no-brainer to make the extra drive west of the…

The Tongariro Crossing Waterfalls page was my waterfalling excuse to talk about the unforgettable hike between three active volcanos in a moonscape that was said to be the finest day tramp…

Raukawa Falls was an attractively wide waterfall that Julie and I saw from afar. As you can see from the photo at the top of this page, we couldn’t get a closer look at it, which was a shame…

Mt Damper Falls (or Mount Damper Falls if we spell it out) was a waterfall that Julie and I only became aware of when we were flipping through one of the tourist brochures we had obtained from an…
