Dawson Falls on the slopes of Mt Taranaki were rediscovered in 1885 when Thomas Dawson almost fell from them. Known as Rere-a-Noke by Taranaki Māori, the original name recounts the story of a warrior who hid behind them to escape his enemies. The lookout is a short walk from the visitor centre (📷1); it’s also possible to descend to the pool at the base of the 18m cascade (📷2).
