High water Spring rafting has started!

The melting snow is swelling the lakes and rivers and the dam is now releasing. High water season has begun!
The snow pack was pretty decent this year so the high water can be expected to last until around mid June. Depending on the amount of rain in rainy season (mid-June until late July) we may even have good water right up until summer this year.
The standard half day rafting covers 12-15kms of whitewater, ranging from grade 2-4. The course changes depending on the flows on the day but we typically run 3 main canyon sections.

Our popular full day rafting trips in Minakami will be running for all of May weekends. Over 25kms of whitewater bliss with a delicious BBQ lunch.

Come up and experience the Mighty Tone river at it best!
