Story

We operate Whanganui River Canoes, The Raetihi Holiday Park, and offer shuttles to Mountain Bike tracks, The Tongariro Crossing, Accommodation, Mountain Bike hire - and can help you with nearly any adventure in the Ruapehu Region.

The Ruapehu Adventure hub is based in Raetihi: a small town in the Central Plateau. In Summer we are really close to TWO NATIONAL PARKS and DOC GREAT WALKS! The Tongariro Crossing is a popular one day walk with shuttles that leave from Raetihi every day in summer. The Whanganui River Journey is a 3-5 day paddle, and one canoe operator on the Whanganui River is based in Raetihi! If you still want to see the beauty of the Whanganui but only have one day, we are the closest town to Pipiriki, where the one/two day jet boat tours start.

In Winter we are the most affordable town near Mt Ruapehu, a popular mountain with two different ski fields. There are three main accommodation providers in Raetihi, The Raetihi Holiday Park, Snowy Waters Lodge, and the Airport Backpackers. This page is to keep you updated on things going on in the are, and feel free to contact us to ask any questions.
