Description
Begin your adventure by soaring over the waterfalls of the Kaituna River with Rotorua Ziplines. Fly through towering native forest, cross four ziplines over three waterfalls, take on a swing bridge, and learn about the rich Māori history of Ōkere Falls and the Kaituna Awa while sipping on ancient tea.
Then, swap harnesses for paddles and raft the world-famous Kaituna River, including the legendary waterfalls and rapids that make this one of New Zealand’s most iconic white-water adventures. Expect world-class guides, powerful rapids (including world-famous 7m Tūtea Falls), incredible scenery, and an unforgettable journey through one of Aotearoa’s most special river environments.
After your zipline and rafting adventure, transfer across Lake Rotoiti by water taxi, which leaves just 3 minutes from the Rotorua Rafting base. Nestled on the shores of Lake Rotoiti, Manupiua Springs Hot Pools is a unique Aotearoa New Zealand experience. Being accessible only by boat or by air is what keeps this haven so unspoiled and pristine.
Enjoy the beauty of the surrounding native flora and fauna, with seven mineral hot pools to soak in and the clear blue lake waters to cool down in. Select the mineral hot pool based on your temperature preference, and slip in to soak away your worries – awakening the mind, body, and soul.
Head down to the lake for an exhilarating dive off the jetty or whizz down the slide into New Zealand’s biggest plunge pool. Embark on a scenic walk up into the hills behind the pools to admire the native bush and take in the stunning views of Lake Rotoiti from the top.
