RIVER RAT'S CONSERVATION

CONSERVATION & THE OHAU CHANNEL CLEAN UP

Conservation Week is about showing how much you love New Zealand!

Check out the Conservation Week website for events planned all round the country and join thousands of people celebrating New Zealand’s unique wildlife, our incredible natural areas, and the places that are part of our history.

You can take part in events & activities to show Aotearoa how much you love it.

OHAU CHANNEL CLEAN UP

We will run our Ohau Channel cleanup as part of Sustainable Backyards in March as the weather should be more suitable than during conservation week in August.

Join River Rats for a Kayak from Lake Rotorua through the Ohau Channel to Lake Rotoiti and pick up any rubbish from the channel and the river banks. Bring your own kayak, a limited number of kayaks are available but you must contact River Rats to book these. We will finish at the boat ramp on SH 33 and River Rats can assist with shuttling people back to the lake front to pick up vehicles.
