"To us, trips feel like we're out doing the things we love with a group of good friends and that's exactly how it is at Hidden Valleys."

White Water Heli-Rafting in New Zealand
One-Day South Island West Coast Rafting Trips
The Heli-Rafting experience exposes you to seldom-explored scenery and ‘hidden valleys’. The remoteness of the river gorges makes access to the put-in a truly moving helicopter flight (for the fit, days of hiking). Our Heli-Rafting Trips have been designed for people looking for excitement away from large groups, while experiencing some of New Zealand’s best scenery and white water.
Perth River heli-rafting
This is as good as it gets for white water Heli-Rafting action in New Zealand. The Perth is a Grade 5 river with longer, white water rapids and two jagged gorges which we pass through.
Taipo River heli-rafting
The Taipo River is listed in Graham Charles’ New Zealand White Water book as being ‘one of the best in the country … stunning for scenery, good central location, excellent white water, a good length and a must do’.
Waiau River heli-rafting
The Waiau offers something for everyone. With a surprise around every corner, the river provides a great trip for an outdoors oriented family or a group of friends or workmates.
Landsborough River heli-rafting
The Landsborough is a great combination of breathtaking scenery with numerous exhilarating rapids. It is a truly remote, seldom-rafted river with huge, snow-capped mountains as its backdrop.
