Waiau River

The Waiau is a great class II run and is a good river for beginner to intermediate paddlers and for teaching with lots of big eddys and a couple of exciting rapids like sharks tooth. This is another Canterbury river that is not far from chch and is another option for those Class II paddlers who want to test their skills on another river other than the Huranui. There are also a couple of sections on the Waiau, one is from Ferry bridge to irrigation intake which is the more popular and the other is above this just further up the highway towards springs junction.
