The Xena Film Locations - HUKA FALLS
When you arrive at the Huka Water falls you get overwelmed by the force that you see. Water that comes from the lake above goes with enormious force down into the narrow pass-through and tumbles down. It has not been used much in the Xena Warrior Princess show.
Standing at the end of he falls, there where the water tumbles down you get the picture how it was taken to insert into a Xena scene = THE ABYSS.
THE ABYSS, the scene where Xena starts building the dam. Another scene where the Huka Falls is inserted is at the Gabby launch in the Bitter Suite.

HUKA WATERFALLS
The Huka Falls are set of waterfalls on the Waikato River that drains Lake Taupo. A few 100 meters upstream from the Huka Falls, the Waikato River narrows from approx 100 meters across into a hard rock granite canyon which is only 15m across. At the top of the falls is a set of small waterfalls dropping over about 8-10 meters. The most impressive Huka Falls Jet which brings you within a few meters of gthe bottom of the final stage.
