Touring New Zealand's North Island by Campervan

This is Whangarei Falls, 26 meters high. The falls, located 5 k north of the city of Whangarei (population 46,000), are surrounded by a wonderful little park that's been ruined by vandals - even the trees along the walking paths have been spray-painted with garbage. We’ve been surprised and disappointed by the amount of litter and graffiti in some areas.
