The Huka Falls are a 10 minute drive away from Lake Taupo township, and a road-side tourist photo trap of epic proportions.  But the place is not quite as exciting as it was when I was a small child.  Way back then the bridge over the most squeezed part of the gorge was just a narrow swing bridge, and my darling brothers would usually jump up and down to make it bounce.  It was quite slippery with spray most of the time as well.
