Lake Karapiro is famous for rowing and has been the training ground for many of New Zealand's top rowers, including Rob and Sonia Waddell, and Olympic gold medallists Caroline and Georgina Evers-Swindell . There's always something new to try at the Lake though, and many school groups take the opportunity to enjoy some sporting education. Corporate groups utilise the Lake's facilities for team building exercises, including the high ropes challenge, orienteering, sailing, kayaking, rowing, and ecology and equine trips. With several walking tracks nearby, the area is ideal for tramping during the cooler months.
