Take the river on at eye level, Rotorua's Kaituna white water sledging through rapids and play holes! You are in charge of your own vessel- propelled by the flippers on your feet!
Join New Zealand’s original white water sledging specialists for an adventure that will have you propelling yourself down the Kaituna River!
Enjoy the thrill of the rapids and the beauty of the native forest around you as you navigate your own sledge using the flippers on your feet.
No experience is necessary as our fun guides will be there to show you the ropes and help with encouragement along the way. However you MUST be able to swim confidently.
Awesome fun and a unique way to experience Rotorua's best white water experience!
Fourth time I’ve done something with this amazing bunch! Experience was amazing good burst of exercise! Guides are amazing and know there stuff and definitely make you feel safe
We did this with our two children (age 13 and 15) and it was an awesome, adrenalin filled experience. We felt safe with the guides and liked that it was a small group. Very thrilling and would highly recommend.
Highly recommend. Amazing guides. Very helpful and some cases life saving. A must do experience.
Kia Ora Emma! We are glad to hear you had such a great time sledging with our crew! Hope you enjoyed the rest of your break :) Nga Mihi, Kaitiaki Adventures
We had an absolute blast! So much fun. We wanted to go again straight away. The guides were fabulous. We are definitely going back. And booking back to back sessions.
Kia Ora! Thank you so much! We can't wait to see you all again! Ma te wa, Kaitiaki Whānau
