Pristine Blue Spring & Cambridge in WAIKATO New Zealand | NORTH ISLAND NZ TRAVEL VLOG 1/5
NZ road trip time again! We had so much fun on our previous Northland road trip that we were itching to do more domestic travel around the North Island of New Zealand while we could take advantage of clear weather spells.
We're slowly working our way to the South Island eventually again too but for this particular road trip escapade we visited the Waikato, Hawkes Bay, Gisborne and Bay of Plenty regions of North Island, NZ.
In this video we visited the town of "trees and champions", Cambridge in Waikato, as well as finally seeing for ourselves the insanely clear, blue waters of Blue Spring in Putaruru. We couldn't believe our eyes how beautiful, pure and clear the water was.
Cambridge is known as the town of "trees and champions" in New Zealand because of its scenic sights but also because it's home to many national sports organisations and events, and a ton of NZ olympic gold medalists too.
After a few hours of driving from Auckland, our first stop in Cambridge was Hanoi Boy. Delicious, fresh Vietnamese street food served out of a food truck. It was so tasty and the perfect meal to rejuvenate us. We both got bun cha which is one of our favourite Vietnamese dishes.
Hanoi boy- Vietnamese Street Food
Address: 9 Albert Street, Cambridge 3434
Hours:
Sunday & Monday Closed
Tuesday & Wednesday 11am–2pm
Thursday - Saturday 11am–8pm
A few minutes drive away we stopped off quickly at Lake Karapiro before we made our way over to the Blue Spring. Note that there is a longer walk you can do along the Waihou River but if you just want to do a much shorter walk and see the Blue Spring sooner, you can park at the Leslie Road car park like we did and go from there.
Blue Spring Putaruru
Address: Leslie Road, Putaruru 3483
Hours: Monday - Sunday Open 24 hours
The Airbnb that we stayed at in Cambridge was clean, cosy and comfy. Lovely hosts and it was great for an overnight's stay.

During our short stay in Cambridge we also spent some time chilling out at Lake Te Koutu (also very near our Airbnb) and it's pretty much in the middle of the town centre. We had dinner at a popular local, modern Italian restaurant called Alpino. Definitely make a booking for this place. We both got pizzas and loved our meal.
Alpino Cambridge
Address: 43 Victoria Street, Cambridge 3434
Hours: Monday - Sunday 11:45am–9:30pm
