Wanaka Rowing Club
About the Club
Wanaka Rowing Club supports rowers at every level, from those taking their first strokes to experienced athletes rowing competitively and those who just want to be on the water enjoying the sport, scenery and social aspects of the club. Our juniors and masters train on the sparkling waters of Lake Wanaka, guided by dedicated coaches and supported by a strong sense of camaraderie.
Each season, our rowers represent the club at regattas, long distance endurance events and social rows. Crews, families, volunteers and supporters all work together to ensure the club continues to thrive as a place of opportunity, growth and connection both on and off the water.
