Tarawera Swimming Hole Access

Tarawera River Swimming Hole Access

Thanks to feedback from the Kawerau community, the Council will ensure the gates are open at Tarawera Park during the day and into the evening during daylight hours.

This will enable easier access to the Tarawera River swimming hole.

Vehicles can be driven through the main Tarawera Park gateway so people of all ages to enjoy the beautiful Tarawera River.

Please be mindful of water safety and adequate supervision of young children and inexperienced swimmers. 

The gates will continue to be locked overnight.
