Sutherland Falls are a waterfall located on the South Island of New Zealand.

They are near the Milford Track, and at 580 metres (1,904 feet) is the highest waterfall in New Zealand. (Note however that this has recently been disputed, with an unofficial listing for Browne Falls of 619 metres (2031 feet).)
