New Zealand Devil's Punchbowl Falls

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
This, in my opinion, is the most picturesque waterfalls in New Zealand; it has it all.

Photography Tips

Arrive early to not only beat the tourists but also to beat the sun up. If you are too late the sun will be in your face and difficult to shoot into. Use a polarizer or ND filter to slow your shutter speed.

Travel Information

Drive along Highway 73 until you reach Arthur's Pass and just west of the village is the sign-post. There is good carpark. The viewing platform will take about 15 minutes to walk and take some 230 stairs which will take your breath a bit but well worth the hike.
Spot Type Outdoor
Crowd Factor A decent amount of people
Best Timing Sunrise
Sunrise & Sunset 07:45 - 19:31 | current local time: 21:08

Copy of Message: Hi Dan! I love this photo and I loved this place. I wanted to write a personal message to you but I don‘t know how this works here. I would be interested in getting this picture from you, it is more beautiful than all pictures from the falls that I could find in alamy.com etc. I would be very happy to hear from you!

I am a fellow Seattleite planning to go to New Zealand in about a year. I would love to get a photo like yours of Devil's Punchbowl in Arthur's Pass (yes, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery). Could you answer a question about framing the shot? Many thanks. [email protected].
