Maketu Waterfall is an 8-metre cascade in the Maketu Pa Cemetery Reserve, off Pratts Road near Ōpaheke, Papakura. It is a popular swimming spot with locals in summer. The return walk from the car park takes about 20 minutes. The track starts with a steep uphill section that can be slippery after rain, then drops to the stream bed by a set of stairs, with extra care needed in wet weather. There are no facilities at the car park, so visitors should bring what they need. The reserve is managed by Whatapaka Marae, and visitors are asked not to remove or disturb any remains in the reserve.
