Gates of Haast is a dramatic series of rapids and cascades on the Haast River, located within Mount Aspiring National Park along State Highway 6 (Haast Highway) in New Zealand's South Island.

Technically classified as a cataract rather than a true freefall waterfall, it drops approximately 4 metres as the river crashes forcefully over large boulders through a rugged gorge.

The site is easily accessible as a roadside stop, with parking available directly off the highway beside the Gates of Haast bridge. Visitors can view the wild, churning water from the bridge or take a short five-minute walk on an easy track.

The location is roughly 1 to 1. 5 hours' drive from Wanaka via SH-6, making it a popular stop along the scenic Haast Pass route.
