Devils Punchbowl Waterfall

Location
Arthurs Pass Village, SH73. A signpost just north of the Chalet Restaurant points to the car park where the walk starts.
Description

The top of this spectacular fall (131 metres) can be seen from the main road, but a walk to the base of the waterfall is well worth doing in any weather, any time of the year.

The track goes up the side of the Bealey River and over two footbridges before zig-zagging up steps through the mountain beech forest to the waterfall's base. Return the same way.
