We were unable to go near Mount Tongariro as it was covered in snow so we decided to take a hike to a famous waterfall. The Taranaki Falls took about 45 minutes to get to and we were able to walk on the very tip top of the falls and run through the very bottom. It was a ton of fun and we got some really beautiful photos.

(Underneath the falls- it was SO LOUD!)

(It ended up being a great day, even if Mt Doom wasn’t able to be conquered)

(One thing I loved about New Zealand? The moss, it’s everywhere)

This was such a great walk, we saw so many beautiful sites and were engulfed in trees. I wish the whole world looked like this. I guess I’ll just have to go back to beautiful New Zealand.
