Your Suggestion
There are two small fibreglass baths surrounded by a decking. You can adjust the temperature by filling fresh hot water into the tubs with a pvc pipe. It's best at night when you can sit in the hot pools and watch the stars, glow worms and look for the 'Faces'! You might get a small furry visitor too. Run across to the river for a cold plunge.

Your Suggestion
Follow the same directions for the Mangatutu Springs but continue driving about 100 metres to a clearing known as and#8216;The Gumsand#8217; car park. This is the starting point for a popular tramp to Te Puia Hut (about 4 hrs tramping). The tramp is quite steep in some parts but there are plenty of good resting spots to take in the views or do a bit of trout fishing. From Te Puia Lodge the track continues up river, passes the turnoff to Makino Hut then crosses a wire bridge over the Makino River, just above its confluence with the Mohaka River. The track continues alongside the Mohaka, then climbs steeply to a large terrace before dropping back to the river. This section takes about 45 mins. Mike, NZ
