- Blue Spring Putaruru is just a small trip from Rotorua so has gained popularity in New Zealand. The Blue Springs is at Te Waihou Walkway and theres a few options for how you can...⬇ More Below ✈ Our 220 page guide on how to travel non-stop - geni.us/9VHNx
We're from New Zealand, but only within the past year did Blue Spring Putaruru even come on our radar. Rotorua is one of the most common tourist spots, as locals we haven't spent too much time there in recent years, the Blue Springs are a day trip walk from Rotorua so seem to have gained popularity.
According to local tourism sites in New Zealand.... The Blue Spring at Te Waihou Walkway is internationally acclaimed with water so pure it supplies around 60% of New Zealand’s bottled water.
The walk to the springs follows a track alongside the Waihou River, through wetlands, across rolling pastoral land and features views of small waterfalls, native bush and the famous Blue Spring with glimpses of trout along the way.
The Blue Spring walk takes about one and a half hours each way, starting near Putaruru. There is also a shorter walk, 15 minutes each way, to the Blue Spring, accessed from nearby Leslie Road.
We didn't have time to do the full Te Waihou Walkway, about 4.7km either direction, so just did the shorter trip this time. But 100% already planning the chance to go back and walk the full thing - it was beautiful!

#BlueSprings #NewZealand
New Zealand did a great job in managing this COVID-19 crisis and with this great to see you guys exploring the nature there and letting us see the beauty of New Zealand has to offer.
It's great to be exploring again, still have to be cautious now that a lot more people are returning home but we have a lot to be grateful for!
Exactly the next stop of our travel channel :)
Awesome! It's a beautiful place to visit 😍
@@DanegerAndStacey Absolutely :)
Couldn't risist writing a comment after watching blue spring nothing I could compare with but what I see in my dreams. Amazing experience that I would love to have very soon. I wish you pleasant stay!
I am so happy you two are safe and healthy and that you're able to do videos around New Zealand! Such a beautiful country.
New Zealand is such an amazing country! I can't wait to go back.
totally agree!
It will be great when we can safely welcome people back!
Once again...beautiful photography and video. Looks like you have a great week ahead of you. Looking forward to the next video from The Mount.
Aw thank you! Hope you enjoy the next video, we had a great week at the Mount!
This popped up so sitting in Ontario Canada watching it and enjoying .
That's awesome! Sending love to Canada!
Last week, we just had a stopover at Blue Spring on our way to Rotorua. So, beautiful. ❤👍🤗 We got some sunshine when we were there, though most of that day was raining.
So happy to hear you got some sunshine while you were there, isn't it beautiful!
Gosh that water is so clear, I'm from the the Bay, Whakatane..Braemar springs is beautiful, clear water but very chilly and we can swim there in the summer.. awesome spot.
I actually really hate my job and it's people like you two who have encouraged me to go back to study so I can have more freedom in my life ❤ bring on the next three years so I can get through this degree and get travelling!
That's awesome to hear you're going back to study!! Good on you for making a change, we're proud of you!
Another laid back good video. The Springs are beautiful hiking around there would be great. Look forward to the week. Have fun
That opening shot! And then you show us the water at Blue Spring. The combination of crystal clear water and the colour plus the amazing flowing vegetation was unlike anything I've ever seen before. It's great how you are finding such wonders on your own doorstep!
It was unlike anything we've ever seen too! The weeds were so mesmerising! We're really enjoying seeing more of New Zealand, hope you're doing well!
Beautiful scenery.
A feast for the eyes. 😍
I hope Tourism New Zealand are taking note and have reached out to you both to sponsor you.
You are wonderful advocates for your beautiful country and I can’t wait to visit NZ . Take care both and I look forward to your next video 👍xx
Unfortunately not! What a lovely compliment, thank you! Comments like this are what keep us going, we really appreciate it xx
The sunrise at 0:53 is to die for.
Wow
Probably the best sunrise we've ever seen 😍
Beautiful video guys! That blue spring looks amazing
Ah man those bird sounds! 😍Can't believe how clear that water is!
Really beautiful. Hopefully some day. Thanks guys
Wow ! Amazing place for calmness, and what a wonderful nature's soothing surrounding there ❤️️🌿💖 I love these fabulous nature scenes 💓🍀❤️️ and Thanks ! for such an awesome cinematography ❤️️👍❤️️
Thank you for watching, so glad you loved the calming nature scenes 🙏
@@DanegerAndStaceyYes ! Calming Nature scenes vanishes all your stress, fatigue, anxiety and depression meanwhile it gives you soul soothing effect with the feelings of extraordinary relaxation🍀💖And I am glad that Your Vlog is awesome and fantastic ❤️️especially its cinematography ❤️️❤️️ for capturing the Nature's scenes and capturing views of beautiful Beaches is just awesome ❤️️👍❤️️
Haha, "I scheduled a sunny day, but..." The long walk looked like it would have been really beautiful. What a pretty place!
Haha clearly I booked in the wrong day! We would love to go back and do the longer walk, such an amazing place
We’ve been to The Mount twice on cruise stops. But we said we would definitely stay and enjoy for longer when we can come on a road trip.
That's awesome you've been twice, it's definitely worth staying a little longer on your next trip :)
It's been dull and raining all weekend and the beginning of this week so far, typical start to a Scottish summer. So I needed to see something bright and beautiful again. Cue you guys. We're promised 27 degrees on Thursday though so we'll see.
Haha gotta love a Scottish summer! 27 degrees sounds dreamy right about now, it's starting to get cold over this way.
The cinematography in this is beautiful 🥰
Aww thank you!
I've had a great aunt that lived in New Zealand. I've never been, but wow is it beautiful! I wished I traveled more when I was young. Have fun you two!
Oh that's so cool! Thanks so much ☺️
Those blue springs are as beautiful as your eyes Daneger (:p)... It's now one place I want to visit. The springs of course and a birthday trip for my husband. His favorite color is blue (supports Man City). Usually this cold time of year we would be in our 2nd home Thailand. But due to covid we're fortunate to be kiwi citizens living here during the 2020 pandemic. When I saw the blueness (the water) it brought a tear to my eye. My last gold fish Judy (of 2) died sometime during the night. The previous one Captain Bung Eye died months ago and I put him in a nice read container in the freezer. I was going to do what people normally do... but fish belong in water. So I'm going to put them both in the water together in a local river to become the circle of life again. Thanks for making this vlog to inspire me to do so and visit another part of beautiful Aoteroa/New Zealand. Nga mihi nui
this place looks unreal!!! im planning a trip there in the next weeks just came back from london so it was awesome to see your vlog first!!! i finally was able to come home!! nice to see you guys back posting!! :)
More kiwi Vloggers! :D
Welcome home!! This place will not disappoint, you'll love it!
Great vlog, we are doing a weekend trip around that area in July, thanks for the inspo!
Oh you will love it, such a great area! Safe travels :)
What a beautiful and tranquil place. To my mind you got there on the right day... spring water so pure and cloudy skies gave your filming such a wonderful subdued colour palette which made it even more relaxing to watch. Lovely work as always. :D
Aww thank you! This place would be beautiful in any weather, rain, hail or shine!
If you get time,try to get to Hamurana Springs,on the other side of Lake Rotorua,it's a river just like that,but crystal clear,plus the odd golf ball,i think there is a cafe there as well.
Ooh awesome tip, thank you!
wow that water looked like an oil canvas! very beautiful. looking forward to your next vlog!
That's such a good way of describing it, exactly how it felt when we were there!
Wauw Blue spring looked “stunning/ Beautiful the colours 🥰. Enjoy your week exploring 😜
So stunning! Thank you, hope you're having a great week too!
So beautiful! safe trip!
I miss Nz so much! I remember being very unfit climbing the mount, but the food in the mount is sooo good
Haha welcome to my life, I was huffing and puffing the whole way up but it was so worth it for the views 😍
New to the channel, loving binge watching your travels 👍
Welcome! So happy you found us 🙂
Great video as usual guys 😊
What a lovely place to be ❤️ ye guys are so lucky to have such beautiful spots to go to 💚
As always another great video 👌 love from 🇮🇪💚☘️❤️

That area looks stunning!!
Its so cool to see New Zealanders doing travel videos and sharing their experience!! Im from New Zealand :D
Cheers Becca! Keep on that grind as well 👌🏼
Great video about the Putaruru Springs... We've been there a few years ago during a housesit in Tokoroa ... I hope you're still at the Mount, I'll look out for you 😉... Thanks for your roadtrip and the great videos. Hugs from the Mount 😃😃
Thank you! Aren't the Blue Springs just amazing 😍 we were blown away. Sending hugs to The Mount!
OMG the moment I saw this video notification on my phone screen and I was about to sleep . I was like sleep can wait let me see what u guys have for us .
Hahah that's commitment, we love that! Thanks for skipping out on your sleep to hang out with us :)
👏😘👍 Hello! I'd love to visit my self one day. Thanks for showing us around.😎😊👏💕
Hope you do get to visit someday! Thanks for watching!
When are you coming to Hawkes Bay? Make sure you visit Central Hawkes Bay towns and beaches too!
Hopefully soon! We wish we made it there in the summer. Looks like we'll be around for a while so we'll get there eventually
WOW!!!! I know New Zealand is gorgeous I’ve known my whole life but for some reason despite my mum being born there I’ve never been. I definitely should prepare for the boarders to open
Definitely, you won't regret it!
Stacey and I have the same shoes! So cool
Yaas Vejas! Look at us saving the environment with our ethical footwear ❤️
Beautiful there!
Tauranga is one of my favourite places in the north island...used to be able to get a bus for $1.00 there and back again from Auckland...that bus has since gone out of business
Wow thats good value!! Not surprised its gone out of business considering the petrol prices now haha
There is another bus that gives super cheap prices. Cost me $10 from Auckland airport to Hamilton last year - they are still operating - you have to be in early to get the cheap seats
So we are all waiting for a new channel with chill music and sights from you two ;)
Hope you enjoyed the new video!
@@DanegerAndStacey enjoyed? I loooove it! ♥
That's amazing 😯👍🤗
U guys r too awsome...y your videos r not getting much likes..🤔just do something to be known as a traveller. I love u guys 😘😘😘
It's all good we're happy with our likes 🤗 We don't make generic videos for views and likes, we make quality content that we're really proud of. Aww thank you, sending love right back!
It’s funny I lived in Putaruru for 7 years and it wasn’t until my 5th year living there I found out about it ... really amazing place though
This is gonna be one of our bucketlist to do in New Zealand for sure! I wonder if it's okay to drink from that blue spring? Great video mate!
You know what? To boost this tourist place, I think they should put up a small kiosk so the public can support it by purchasing a bottle water. 🙂
Such a great spot to put on your bucket list! Haha we're not too sure, it's a sacred place so might be best to bring your own water 😉
Cool to see you in my home city and you guys back home. The springs are Tapu (sacred) and the swimming was not allowed so those tourists that were swimming were harming the enviroment and offending local Maori iwi as it is a Sacred treasure.
Such a cool place!
There are a lot of great swimming holes in the south waikato my favourite was undies down near te waotu just out of Tokoroa.
A bit too chily to swim at the moment but we'll remember that for when summer rolls around!
So you just started winter there? I had to look but it’s so green and lush there. Such a beautiful country!
Yep, winter has just begun and we are not used to the cold at all! Still beautiful and green in the North Island!
Get me to New Zealand asap! Shame you guys didn't go with Danes thumbnail for this video 😂
Haha turns out you're not the only one who was disappointed with our thumbnail choice 😂
6:06 Unintentional ASMR :-P
EDIT: A more relevant comment, now that I have watched the video: I cannot wait for the next video, to see what this place has to offer. It looks awesome! And the path you walked in this video was amazing! I can't believe the colours!
Hope you enjoy the next vid, we just posted it earlier today!
Daneger and Stacey I watched it while having dinner :) It did not disappoint! The video, that is ahah

A little disappointed with the thumbnail but hey great video! Wish i went here when visited NZ!

Wow that water is so clear. It looks like a dinosaur is about to come out.

Cheers!
Like and subscribed :)
Where is the accommodation in the very beginning???? can anybody leave some information plz
Hey - it's called Redwood Farm glamping
👍❤️️👍❤️️👍❤️️👍❤️️
You should have walked the full walkway not just the quick 800m from the closest carpark
Well, we didn't have time. So we opted for the something is better than nothing approach.
DOWN WITH THE SYSTEM - FREEDOM FOR JOAN!
Hell yeah people... Mike know's what's up!! #FreeJoan 🤣
Who's else is here because of pump water
You used the boring thumbnail after all...
😂😂 BORING! I think you meant to write beautiful
I like your video...could we see more of where you are and less of you?
😂 That's a bit rude. This isn't the discovery channel... it's our personal channel so it's only natural to show our faces.
