Wet 'n' Wild Rafting Adventures

The Wairoa

The Wairoa is one of New Zealand's most exciting raftable rivers, and one of the most popular, with an impressive line up of full-on white water action. The one and a half hour trip starts with simple grade two cascades, and gradually builds up to thundering grade five rapids of the 'The Waterfall' and 'Rollercoaster'.

The Wairoa is pure adrenaline, and is tackled by thousands of people each year. Stunning tree-lined gorges, turbulent rapids and breathtaking drops add up to top whitewater action!

Trips include light refreshments consisting of fresh salad rolls, tea, coffee or juice, biscuits and fruit.

The Wairoa river is controlled by a hydro dam and runs only 26 days a year - so don't miss out. It is available on the following scheduled dates only:

Just wanted to let you know that all of my team had a fantastic day yesterday, everyone said how they really enjoyed the experience. Out of 13 staff 3 members were women & I was concerned if it would be a little too difficult for them. But all 3 girls have asked can we please do this again next year.
Everyone has been looking at the pics i bought & having a good laugh. I suspect we will talking about this for weeks!!

Please pass on my thanks to all 3 guides as well; they really looked after us & we will definatly be back for some more. Kevin Rochester - Papakura Toyota Read more...
