Tree Trunk Gorge + Grade 3 Whitewater Rafting
On this combo, you ride through the beautiful Tongariro Forest right to our rafting starting point! Tree Trunk Gorge is a short but beautiful track that weaves through native forest, with a short steep climb, a picturesque river ford and wooden bridges en route.
The track is 10km – along the way you can check out the Pillars of Hercules before biking down to the Poutu Intake on the Tongariro River for lunch before your rafting experience.
You then raft down the Tongariro River on our Grade 3 Whitewater section – more than 60 rapids and beautiful scenery all the way.
This is suitable for experienced mountain bike riders who are comfortable riding Grade 4 tracks.
