Tarawera River and Falls These are the most spectacular falls in the Bay of Plenty. The Tarawera River plunges 65 metres down a sheer cliff before tumbling down bush-lined rapids. The Tarawera River bed around the falls is carved into ancient volcanic rocks and the high cliffs are thought to be the eroded end face of an ancient lava flow that poured from Mt. Tarawera about 11,000 years ago.
