Experience the thrill of canyoning in the Little Akatarawa Valley, an adventure you won't forget. You'll navigate cascading waterfalls, abseil down their sheer faces, and leap into crystal-clear pools.
The adventure begins with a 20-minute walk along an old logging track into the Akatarawa Forest, where the excitement of the Little Akatarawa Canyon tour starts. Your journey kicks off with a thrilling zipline ride into the canyon, followed by three exhilarating waterfall descents.
Then you'll be lowered through the first waterfall to help you get comfortable, and when you're feeling confident, experienced guides will coach you through an independent abseil, ensuring your safety and enjoyment. As you wade through a shallow creek and optionally jump from heights into pristine, fresh water, you'll be surrounded by breathtaking scenery, making this an unforgettable experience. The Little Akatarawa Canyon is a hidden gem in the Wellington region, just a 40-minute drive from the CBD. We're fortunate to have such an incredible adventure right on the doorstep of the capital city.
This experience tends lasts between 4-5 hours and typically runs at 12pm daily.
We need a minimum of 3 people on a tour for it to go ahead
We provide all the river gear to keep you warm and safe on the river, however you will need to bring a towel and something to wear under your wetsuit. We also recommend bringing your own woolen/thermal socks as peoples feet tend to get cold the quickest. Please do not wear cotton items as these will keep you cold when they get wet.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
