Camp Creek is the first of many significant mountain streams and falls that you cross heading north on State Highway 6 beyond the Lake Hāwea – Lake Wānaka isthmus. Drive slowly, and you will see a significant waterfall above the stream.
There is room to park near the bridge and clamber down to the stream on the north side. Then, work your way along the rocks and stones up the stream for a better view. The colourful rocks, with red-orange lichen, are a bonus feature.
