McLaren Falls Park is a beloved spot in Tauranga, New Zealand. It spans 190 hectares alongside Lake McLaren—the perfect place to relax and take in the stunning scenery of the exotic trees and tranquil lake. Visitors can marvel at the beautiful waterfall, or even go for a kayak ride under the stars while spotting glow worms. There are picnic spots, camping sites, and even an equestrian area for those wishing to bring their horses. The park also features year-round trout fishing in both the lake and the nearby Ruahihi Canal. During autumn, the park is extra appealing due to its flourishing colours. Why not visit this family favourite park and create memories that will last a lifetime?
