Looking for some adrenaline in you New Zealand holiday or perhaps a beautiful relaxing float down a major New Zealand river surrounded by native bush and amazing river formations? We raft regularly on two New Zealand rivers, the Rangitikei - our home river - and the Ngaruroro, just over the range in Hawkes Bay.

Between these two rivers we can offer you a variety of trips, from the intensity of a half day on the Grade 5 section of the Rangitikei, to gentle float trips for families also on the Rangitikei, to mutli day wilderness trips on both the headwaters of the Rangitikei and Ngaruroro Rivers.

Why not combine your rafting holiday with one of River Valley Stables horse adventures and relax for a few days in our adventure purpose built lodge set in a stunning bushland right next to the Rangitikei River. A fantastic place to bring the family to stay in a range of accommodation from Deluxe guest rooms to bunk rooms and camping. We have an amazing chef preparing culinary delights using local ingredients and organic site grown vegetables. Wash it down with a cool refreshment from the bar listening to the sound of the river. River Valley will not disappoint and will have you walking away with lasting memories!
