Wilkies Pools

Wilkies Pools is a series of naturally carved rock pools and small cascades located on the slopes of Mount Taranaki in Egmont National Park. Over time, flowing water has shaped smooth basins in volcanic rock, creating a unique and scenic attraction. A short forest walk leads visitors to the pools, where clear mountain water flows through a narrow rocky channel. The area feels peaceful and sheltered, surrounded by native forest and volcanic terrain. For travelers, Wilkies Pools offers an easy and rewarding stop that combines light walking with an interesting natural feature.
