Grade 5 White Water Rafting on the Rangitikei River with River Valley Rafting

Grade 5 White Water Rafting on the Rangitikei River with River Valley Rafting

http://www.rivervalley.co.nz

Our half day, Grade 5, white water rafting trip, is often recognised as one of the best in New Zealand, or even the world (recently it was voted in the top 8 rafting trips in the world by Red Bull).

Your Rangitikei adventure begins gently - Grade 2 and 3 rapids ease you in and sharpen your instincts for what's coming. Over 11 kilometres and 2 to 3 hours on the water, the river steadily builds its case. Then comes the gorge. Ten major rapids, Grade 3+ through to Grade 5, lined up one after the other, some short and explosive, others rolling on for several hundred metres through sheer canyon walls. It's a sequence that experienced river guides have long called the perfect half-day rafting trip: an easy start that builds relentlessly to a thrilling, unforgettable finish. We shuttle you to the put-in from River Valley Lodge, and the river does the rest, delivering you back to our front door.
