The walk thru the redwoods and the views of the river are very pleasant, not very long though and to be charged $18 per person is absolutely ridiculous. It turns peo[ple away - maybe that is the desired outcome??

Right when we got there we were very well received by Kani, a very helpfull staff that gave us many good tips about free places to visit around Rotorua, as well as how to get the best experience inside the park. Her tips were perfect and we had the most amazing time in this beautiful place. One of the best places we visited in Rotorua! Highly recommed.

Yes it is expensive at 18$ pp, but we spent a wonderful 2 hours wandering around the walks which are just so beautiful. The Spring is mesmerising and the waters do clear and lovely, I think these springs are more beautiful and extensive than those in Golden Bay ( S Island), which admittedly are free, but you can't picnic there, you can here! Clean toilets. Plenty of parking. Signage need some attention as we didn't find it easily. I appreciate is is expensive, especially for families. Perhaps thee could be more reductions for families and locals? As a tourist I thought it was good value for money.
