Overview

An action packed adventure through the Gorge!

White Water Sledging is the best way to get up close and personal with the mighty waters of the southern lakes of New Zealand.
Take on the rapids of the historic Kawarau River on our river purpose sledges, designed and built in New Zealand! They are buoyant and manoeuvrable, perfect for running rapids and spinning in whirlpools! The Roaring Meg Half Day Adventure takes you through 6km of one of NZ's best high volume white water. The river has something for everyone: fast flowing rapids, boils, whirlpools and a chill out final section to allow you to enjoy the amazing scenery of the historic Kawarau River.

Haven't had enough? Just when you think it's all over, the guides take you back to the start and you get to run the 6km of white water rapids again!
You will end up a fully-fledged Frog with a big smile!
The Roaring Meg section of the mighty Kawarau is graded 2-3. No experience is required but you must be able to swim, be reasonably fit and confident in water. Our team is comprised of seasoned professionals. Frogz has been running white water sledging trips from Queenstown and Wanaka since 1991.
