On a grey overcast day the colours in the water are amazing.
Lake Taupo drains into the Waikato river and within 5 minutes drive downstream the normally wide Waikato squeezes into a 20 meter wide gorge and rushes over a 20 meter drop. This is the Huka falls flowing and disgorging water at the rate of about 220,0000 litres per second back into the Waikato.
