The Boulders Scenic Half Day Float on the Rangitikei River
Overview
Whitecilffs Boulders are an eerie Boulder Garden sitting on the banks of the Rangitikei River. Lunching amongst these Boulders midway through a gentle drift down the river is a fantastic way to discover the Rangitikei.
The trip begins right in front of our café and entails a gentle drift down to the Whitecliffs Boulders. Lunch is laid out while you explore the Boulder Garden. Once you have had your fill, of both lunch and the setting, we continue on downstream. We transport you back to the café after your trip for a snack and a cuppa!
