The Waikato River is the longest river in New Zealand, running for 425 kilometres through the North Island. It rises in the eastern slopes of Mount Ruapehu, joining the Tongariro River system and emptying into Lake Taupo, New Zealand’s largest lake.
oh that blue in the water is amazing – but unlike sunset dragon… (above) – I would not go rafting there- looks scary – argh – but I can see why this is NZ’s greatest – whew
Dit bly maar besonders. Mens kan nie ophou kyk daarna nie. Dink nie SA se water kleur is soos hierdie nie
