The Aratiatia dam forms part of the Aratiatia Power Station (enabling water to be diverted through the power station). The dam gates are opened daily at 10am, 12pm, 2pm and 4pm (in summer) releasing 65,000l of water per second. It's an interesting and impressive site. And there's also a walkway above the old river bed/rapids with a number of viewpoints. Note, the river bed/rapids are dangerous given the quickly changing water levels. Access is not permitted.

Plan your drive to arrive at 12pm 2pm or 4pm when the water is released over the floodgates and watch the river flood. Not safe for swimming, as the water is treacherous when released.
A unique display of man vs nature. The Dam opens every day for around 15 mintues. The water is released from the Aratiatia Dam down through the Aratitia Rapids. Please note that swimming is not permitted at the Rapids as it is extremely dangerous. Please pay attention to signs, safety warnings and sirens. Aratiatia Road, Rotokawa
Aratiatia Rapids Catch the thousands of litres of water released up to 4 times a day. See website for release times
