Otumuheke Stream

Taupo
All year round

Soak under a waterfall or in the natural rock pools whilst taking in the stunning views of the deep green, crystal-clear waters of the mighty Waikato river.

The Otumuheke Stream area had a significant upgrade in 2018, including new changing rooms, lockers and toilets, river edge lounging platforms, a hot spring seating area, coffee kiosk and storyboards explaining the historic significance of the area. Otumuheke is a historical bathing and meeting place for Māori and the redevelopment has been a joint project between local iwi and the Taupō District Council.
