Aratiatia Rapids: Watching the Massive River Flood in Seconds
★0.0(0)
Show up at least ten minutes before the dam gates open to snag a spot on the upper bridge. You watch the empty, rocky gorge transform into a thundering torrent in less than a minute when the power station releases the water. It lasts for about an hour before draining again. Don't pay for tours, just park, walk the short path, and catch the 10am or 12pm release. It is weirdly hypnotic and totally free.
