What: 2.5hour easy walk along the Te Waihou Stream 
When: Anytime of year - though a hot summer's day would be perfect to take a dip after the walk in the swimming hole at the carpark off White Road (SH28).
Where: 5min drive from the Putaruru township - off SH28 heading towards Rotorua.
How...
Living in Hamilton and in need of a free activity to change up your Sunday afternoon? Take a trip out to Putaruru and do this 9ish km return walk alongside the Te Waihou Stream (home of 'Pump' water).
We parked our car at the White Road carpark. The walk to the stunning blue spring is a flat, easy walk over a combination of bush track and farm paddock. The walk includes a loop track where you can take the scenic boardwalk along the stream.
The Te Waihou stream is unique with its 'blue spring' - where small trout can be spotted within its stunning clear water. Alongside the blue spring is a selection of picnic spots, where families enjoy a nice day out amongst the beautiful scenery that the South Waikato has to offer.
The Te Waihou Walkway is approximately 45min drive from Hamilton.
