Omeru Reserve

I love this place, such a great spot and rarely populated. Perfect for a picnic as there is lots of shade, and great for exploratory walks. It's a short walk to the waterfall - well worth it.

Well kept reserve, nice view of the falls and I'd say this would be great for a picnic in the summer. Don't expect a long walk, about 10 mins all round.

Lovely atmosphere and scenic views! Perfect for picnic with family and friends on a sunny day! Must visit!

You will discover two waterfall in this reserve. One waterfall is Omeru Falls which splits into two waterfalls. Not too high falls about 2 meter falls like a Cascade Falls. Wait, after you criss the first bridge, there is two paths, left and right. On the right track is Omeru Falls and on the left at the end of the track is Waitangi falls. Now there is stairs going down. Before there was a rope. We went after a heavy downpour which gave these waterfalls volumes of water. Very easy tracks. Some places the track is muddy but manageable. There are off tracks too but be careful of slips. There are picnic tables and a bbq area but you have to bring your own facilities to light your bbq. We went during winter so we don't know whether you would swim there or not. When we went they was no one so we had the whole reserve to ourselves. You will definitely enjoy this place. Hope this has been helpful. Oh, there are toilet facilities at the lower car park. When we went there was a boom gate blocking the lower carpark. Cheers

Very picturesque and easy walk from the car park. There are chickens and sometimes sheep that frequent the car park that children enjoy interacting with. The trails are well maintained but can be a little muddy at times. Several water falls to walk to, beautiful walks in the trees. A few areas that are steep or include fairly long series of steps. Several areas with picnic tables.

Quick visit at the end of a summer day. Beautiful waterfalls, easy access, there are toilets and barbecue places. Some loud group of guys had just arrived so we didn't stay long. Ok place and nice easy walk in the forest.

A calm place to spend your day off. Not crowded as it's bit far away (even in the weekend) Good place to have a picnic by the waterfall or a nice swim. There are two waterfalls with easy acess. Few benches here and there to rest. Be cautious when you do the right turn to the park entrance from highway.

We really enjoyed wandering around this reserve. Follow the little man made tracks off the main track to discover cool spots along the stream. Both waterfalls are easy to get to and worth the view.

Very short walk from the car park.Good for a weekend picnic

What a great place...A small waterfall on right and a large waterfall on left through grass area. Left waterfall in good for swimming. Dogs aloud on a lead. Please pick up poop.
