About Us

Often, when I’m looking for something on the internet I come across an online directory. Directories suck. The lists are incomplete and biased towards whoever is paying to be listed on the site.

For example, ALL of the online NZ tourism directories have an accommodation section but you’ll only get a small list of total number of accommodation options – you’ll just see places that can afford to pay to be listed.
To get a complete picture of your options, you could visit multiple directories… who can be bothered? Not I!

The system is great for the website owner (they are earning revenue from the paying members) and great for the paying vendors (they get exposure) but not so great for the website visitor – you!

When is Miranda going to open I’m going to start a protest if it doesn’t open soon. That’s a place for all of us.

Mornings. 6am -10am. Evenings. 4pm…

Needed a sluice out with built up debris but next morning crystal clear and perfect temp for a lie down soak. Also small hotpool at top of warm waterfall.

Visited in Nov 2024. Have used hot pools at the Mount since they were wood surrounded. Very sad price now $27.30 per adult. Not a nice salt pool anymore, mostly chlorine; feels like a normal swimming pool. Heat of pools is loweredto fairly tepid. May as well just go to your local pools for the cost!!

Follow either the 4wd track or the path by the river bank until you reach the washed out ford/bridge whatever it was, its gone. Follow the cairns rock hopping down this side creek until you hit the river, then its just up the true right a bit. Cant miss it. Seems not much used, but pretty nice actually.
