The Waitomo Walkway

March 1, 2007

On our last day in Waitomo we trekked the 12km Waitomo Walkway, described by our Rough Guide To New Zealand as "one of the best short walks in the country." Not too challenging a walk, it took us up to a viewpoint of Waitomo then along Waitomo Stream. From the end of the walkway, we followed the Raukuri Natural Tunnel.

At the end of the walkway you reach a huge cave where the stream heads temporarily undergound. Apparently, the walk is better appreciated at night, when the glowworms that align the stone walkways light a path for you.
