An Afternoon at Rere Rock Slide

Be sure to pack snacks, plenty of drinking water, and a picnic lunch. Don’t forget to wear your wet suits or clothes for getting wet! While the rock slide is free to enjoy, the extra sliding equipment is not provided on-side. You can stop by the Gisborne i-SITE first to inquire about wet suits and equipment for hire (it’s not expensive). If it’s a nice day, be prepared to share the attraction with other visitors.

Please Keep Safety In Mind

Visitors on Trip Advisor recommend that safety precautions be taken at the rock slide and to allow time for those in the pool at the end to move out of the way. You slide down the rock at your own risk.

Picnic and Waterfall

Not too far from the rock slide is the waterfall, which is a magnificent view and worth the trip to see. There are nearby picnic areas where you can dry off and eat lunch while you enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
