Drone video of Thunder Creek Falls, Wanaka, NZ
As you drive inland from the west coast of New Zealand on highway 6 towards Wanaka, there is a quick viewing stop just a short hike from the road where you can see Thunder Creek falls. It is a 98m/300+ ft vertical drop waterfall that empties into the Haast river begging for the DJI Mavic to come out and play with it. The beautiful, blue pool of water it empties into cannot be seen well from the viewing deck across the river. If you view it in person, bring bug repellent as the sandflies are thick at the viewing platform. If you are bold enough to brave very cold water, you could cross the river and jump in the pool created at the base.

Haast Pass, Gate of Haast, Wanaka to West Coast New Zealand
The drive from Wanaka to the West Coast passes through spectacular scenery. This route was a traditional pathway for Maori journeying west in search of pounamu (greenstone or jade). The basins that are filled by Lake Hawea and Lake Wanaka were gouged out by the Hawea and Wanaka Glaciers. Two arms of the glaciers joined at a narrow piece of land called The Neck.
Makarora, at the northern tip of Lake Wanaka, is a launching point for several multi-day walks in Mount Aspiring National Park. A number of shorter walks begin at the highway's edge between Makarora to Haast. Favourites include walks to the Blue Pools, Fantail Falls, Thunder Creek Falls and Roaring Billy. At the Gates of Haast gorge, many travellers stop to photograph the wild water as it crashes over the river boulders.
