You’ll be met by a friendly guide who will help set up your kayak to ensure it fits you comfortably. Safety gear will be provided before you begin your journey. In the daylight, you’ll kayak across the lake and paddle up the serene Pokaiwhenua Stream, eventually gliding through a canyon that leads to your campsite. Once you arrive, you’ll step out of your kayak and unwind with drinks, food, and a cozy campfire.
As dusk settles in, you’ll hop back into our kayak and float gently down the canyon in small groups, marveling at the magical glowworms illuminating the night. The adventure concludes with a peaceful paddle back across the lake under the stars.
