River Rush Rafting

River Rush Rafting

Vector Wero Whitewater Park is a world class tourism destination that engages our communities and youth. It is New Zealand's first facility to offer an artificial river and water course for recreation, sports, and emergency services training, school programmes and youth development.

It is a pinnacle stage within the collection of facilities which includes the Vodafone Events Centre and the Sir Noel Robinson Conference Centre.

Vector Wero Whitewater Park was developed using best practice in the world.

Whitewater Parks International (WPI) was the design brain-power behind New Zealand’s first and only artificial white water facility. WPI has worked on Penrith Whitewater Stadium, Lee Valley Whitewater Stadium and the Rio Olympic Whitewater Stadium.

At Czech Technical University of Prague, the world’s preeminent research facility for water movement, a scale model was built to test and fine-tune the design, ensuring the grade 3/4 river meets international standards.
