With a strong emphasis on safety and an enthusiastic team of staff, Waipara Adventure Centre is the perfect choice for a safe, fun and memorable adventure. We pride ourselves on being one of the leading adventure centres in New Zealand. Our aim is to provide “excellence in outdoor adventure, education outside the classroom, or just use our facilities to have a peaceful, laid back experience”.
Waipara Adventure Centre is set against the natural beauty in the heart of the peaceful Waipara river valley. Take advantage of our facilities, which provides visitors with the perfect mix of character and comfort.
Whether you want the full adventure package, team building, education outside the classroom, or just somewhere to base your own programme, or maybe you require a venue for your own camp, Waipara Adventure Centre is the place for you.
If it’s the thrilling adventure package we can design a programme to challenge and reward all ages and abilities, Waipara Adventure Centre lets you experience action packed adventure that you will talk about for a long time to come. Another emphasis is to provide an avenue for volunteer staff, both international and New Zealanders, to share in the life of an emerging Christian adventure centre and gain valuable life experience.
