Thunder Creek Falls

A 28 m waterfall a five-minute walk off the Haast Pass highway.

Why go

Maximum payoff for minimum effort: a powerful waterfall moments from the road, perfect to pair with the nearby Blue Pools.

One of the easiest roadside stops on the Haast Pass, Thunder Creek Falls drops 28 metres into the Haast River. A flat five-minute forest walk from the car park reaches the viewing platform — an ideal leg-stretch on the long, scenic drive between the West Coast glaciers and Wānaka.
