Not for the faint-hearted or the hydrophobic, this five-hour, adrenaline-pumping raft adventure takes you down the Grade five white water of the Rangitata Gorge. Experienced guides (whose irreverent wit belies vast experience on the world's wildest rivers) take you into the teeth of huge cataracts with names like Glacier, Pencil Sharpener, Pig's Trough and Tsunami. If you capsize, remember to take a lung-full of air before you spend some "down time" on the bottom of the river! You also get to jump off a 10-metre rock into the river and enjoy a barbecue when it is all over. Disabled people can raft depending on level of disability.

disabled access.
