Canoeing, kayaking and rafting – High Country
For a spot of High Country adventure, take to the water in a canoe, kayak or raft.
The Mitta Mitta River flows through one of Australia’s most spectacular granite ravines, providing a fantastic rafting adventure past 18 kilometres of rock formations through numerous grade 3 and 4 rapids. The King is another excellent white water rafting river, with over 40 rapids from grade 2 to grade 4.
The beautiful Howqua and Delatite rivers outside Mansfield are also popular with canoeists, kayakers and white water rafters in summer. Both rivers are rated from easy to challenging according to water levels. High water means high rapids and these should only be tackled by experienced paddlers.
