See Diana Falls, Haast Pass, New Zealand
Diana Falls is two waterfalls located on Haast Highway. It can be seen from a car.
In September 2013 what was described as one of the most extreme rainfall events in New Zealand, hit the West Coast of the South Island. The storm claimed the lives of two Canadian tourists, closed State Highway 6 for two weeks and disrupted traffic on the famous West Coast Highway for nearly 12 months. The largest impact on the route was at Diana Falls, where over 4,000 cubic meters of soil, rock and vegetation slipped and blocked the road. The construction of the Diana Falls Rockfall mitigation system was also a key milestone in the development of a New Zealand design guide for rockfall mitigation and the future design solutions adopted in Kaikoura.
