Your White Water Rafting Experience on the Kawarau River
Get Ready for an Unforgettable Adventure
Prepare for a day on the water as you swap your street clothes for a wetsuit and helmet, ready to explore one of New Zealand’s iconic rivers. After an engaging safety briefing led by passionate guides, take your seat in the raft and start your journey downstream. The Kawarau River is famous for its gentle yet exciting grade 2-3 rapids, ensuring a safe yet exhilarating time for first-timers and groups looking for a fun challenge.
Spectacular Sights and Scenic Beauty
The adventure goes beyond the rapids. As you paddle along, marvel at the towering cliffs, wild terrain and serene stretches perfect for swimming or simply taking in the remarkable Central Otago landscape. Pass by lush vineyards and filming locations from The Lord of the Rings franchise, adding a cinematic touch to your excursion. Your expert guides share stories about the river’s Maori heritage and significance as a traditional travel and food route, enhancing the journey with local insight.
Rapids, Races and River Games
Challenge your friends and family to paddle races through the river’s sweeping channels. When the water calms, jump in for a swim or cheer on your fellow rafters for some friendly competition. Test your skills and teamwork as you prepare for Dog Leg—the longest commercial rapid in the country. This 400-meter surge delivers a thrilling finale that’s sure to get hearts pounding and everyone grinning with accomplishment.
Upgrade for Even More Excitement
If adrenaline is what you seek, choose the jet boat add-on. Before the rafting adventure, hold tight as your jet boat driver powers across the water, performing 360° spins and high-speed maneuvers that skim the river’s surface. This exhilarating prelude sets the tone for your rafting journey, combining two iconic Kiwi experiences in one.
Wrap Up Your Day With Lasting Memories
Return to the base after the raft excursion to warm up with a hot shower. Relive your exploits with complimentary photos capturing your best moments on the river.
