Bordering the river is native forest, and small flood plains. Trees include Maire and Kahikatea, with a rich understory of tree ferns and broadleaves.

This natural corridor has a variety of bird life, from the rare New Zealand Falcon, to Tui and Bell Bird, Fantails, Spur winged Plovers, and of course Paradise Ducks.

The trip takes about 3 1/2 hours on river, with a picnic lunch stopover on the river bank. If weather conditions and time permit, then we can take a hike up a side canyon to view the Ohutu Falls, the most reliable of the major waterfalls that feed the river.

This canyon is one of the most beautiful sections of the Rangitikei River.
