Swing Heli Raft

Highlights / General details

Put these three activities together and you’re in for a swinging good time! Situated high above the Shotover River on a purpose built, cliff mounted platform is the famous Shotover Canyon Swing. With over 70 different jump styles this swing will have you screaming for that 60m free-fall in more ways than one.

Once you’ve faced your fear of falling it’s time to jump on board a helicopter ride which follows the twists and turns of the river to the launch spot for your white-water rafting adventure.

Paddle down the richest gold baring river in the world (per km) and take in the narrow canyon’s rapids of rock garden, squeeze, pinball and toilet to name a few. We hope you’re not afraid of the dark as you raft through the 170m long Oxenbridge Tunnel before splashing down the Cascade rapid to finish!
