Tucked into Lower Hutt as perhaps the highest waterfall in the Wellington region, Percy Falls drops through native bush at the end of the well-maintained Waterfall Walk. The track offers a straightforward, sheltered bush walk suitable for most fitness levels, giving visitors an easy route straight to the cascade without needing a full backcountry trek.
Set within Percy Scenic Reserve and reached from Barberry Grove in Maungaraki, the trail provides a remarkably accessible pocket of native forest just minutes above the Hutt valley floor. Our pick in Lower Hutt for a quick, rewarding walk to running water.
