River rafting isn’t the easiest activity to undertake. It demands upper body strength, endurance and adrenaline! Unfortunately, this dissuades many New Zealand tourists and locals from giving rafting a go. At Kaituna Cascades, we provide professional white water rafting across the waterfalls of Rotorua, and are therefore happy – and knowledgeable enough! – to give you 3 reasons to try rafting at least once. Read on for more!

See spectacular views up close and personal

The best thing about rafting, and the main reason you have to try it at least once, is the fact that you can see spectacular views up close and personal! At Kaituna Cascades, we’ve brought eager rafters to dozens of stunning, unforgettable views that they can adventure through. One of the best is Tutea Falls, the highest commercially rafted waterfall in Rotorua, and the world!

Get into a fun exercise

Exercise is essential for maintaining your health and wellbeing. Ideally, though, you should participate in a fun exercise that you can actually enjoy – this way, working out isn’t a chore! Rafting is exactly that; a thrilling, fun, effective cardio workout that, whilst having a physical impact, isn’t emotionally draining or something you dread to do.

Spend time with your loved ones

Rafting is all about team building. You have to work together as a group to paddle where you need to go! Co-ordination, communication and trust are foundational values of rafting, so giving this activity a go not only gives you the valuable opportunity to spend time with your loved ones, but to strengthen your bonds as well.
