From the carpark at the end of Glenesk Road, directions are clearly signposted. A well formed loop track, used by around 30,000 people a year (2005),〔Dept of corrections - Community Works , Issue 3, June 2005〕 follows the Glen Esk Stream with minor undulations (on the south side) up to a lookout where you find a huge Macrocarpa bench seat to rest on and admire the view. The bench seat was made by offenders doing community work (2005). The track then descends down wooden steps to the base of the falls (40 minutes from the carpark). The track then crosses the stream next to the lower swimming hole and returns down the north side. However, instead of going down again, a walker can climb a reasonably steep track (the Connect Track) which begins about 100m from the base of the falls on the northern side of the stream. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the top of the falls.〔Day Walks of Greater Auckland (2003) by Marios Gavalas and Peter Janssen, Reed Publishing (NZ) Ltd. Page 63〕 There is a good swimming hole at the top although the water is cool. From this high vantage point there are great views down the valley.
