Paradise Valley Springs, Rotorua

Pure Spring Water
Visitors to Paradise Springs are invited to touch and taste pure New Zealand Spring Water straight from the natural Spring!

Paradise Valley Springs has its own natural freshwater spring, Te Waireka (meaning "Sweet Water"). 

Flowing from deep underground at a rate of 60 litres every second, this pure water provides a never ending supply to our trout pools, coffee shop and water bottling plant.

New Zealand Nature
Paradise Valley Springs is a superbly presented wildlife park. Enjoy New Zealand wildlife, Rainbow and Brown Trout, New Zealand birds, friendly farm animals, pure spring water and an elevated Treetops Walk over native New Zealand Bush.

Rainbow and Brown Trout A fantastic underwater viewing cave provides a great opportunity to observe the Trout up close as well as in our crystal clear Trout pools. Approximately 20,000 wild Trout also spawn in our stream annually. You can see the Trout, feed them, and admire them. Trout food is available from our shop. Also see huge native Eels.

Set in a beautiful native New Zealand bush setting, the circuit follows much of the Trout filled Ngongotaha Stream and low fences mean lots of interaction with the wildlife.

Elevated Treetops Walk
The fantastic new Elevated Treetops Canopy Walk winds through a secluded area on the edge of the Mamaku Ranges.

Friendly Farm Animals
The park is home to several varieties of animals found wild or farmed in New Zealand Deer, Thar (goats), Wallabies, Kune Kune pigs, Giant Eels, Friendly Farm Animals, Native Birds, and more!

The latest edition are the minature horses.

At Paradise Valley Springs you can get up close to feed much of the wildlife in their natural habitat.

Native Birds
The Wetlands showcase both native and introduced water birds. Black Swans glide elegantly through the misty waters, as Ducks dive and play to get their food.

African Lion Pride
Discover The Pride of Paradise - our Lion Pride. Their specially designed enclosure allows visitors to get very close to these wild animals.

At times, there are gorgeous Lion Cubs available for patting.

Paradise Valley is recognised internationally as being of the highest quality and is beautifully maintained.

Natural materials have been used throughout the park, and the flat cobblestone paths and wooden boardwalks are wide and easily accessible for all.
