Rafting and Kayaking
The Rangitīkei river is one of New Zealand's most beautiful and most thrilling rafting rivers.
It's not always easy to find an adventure activity for you and your whole family to enjoy but whether you’re looking for a half hour relaxing drift, or wanting to chase adventure with a half day Grade 5 thriller, we've got you!
Our trips range in duration from one hour to four day family adventures - the ultimate family getaway. Some packages include a stop at the Whitecliffs Boulders - are an eerie boulder garden made over centuries. Others feature locations from Lord of the Rings movies and spectacular canyon views that are only accessible from the river. And most include food and if required accommodation.
Uncover hidden gems of our district with our family-run guides at Rivervalley, Tarata Fishaway Lodge and Awastone.
