TOURS
Each tour will start with a guided drive around the historic town of Te Aroha. You will learn about the rich history and wild geology of the area. We will also visit a historic gold mining settlement.
Once at the Waihou River, you will be given your water equipment and expert instructions on how to navigate your kayak (or stand up paddle board) down the river safely.
During your Waihou River kayak tour, don’t forget to keep a sharp eye out for the wide variety of bird life which live on and around the river.
Be sure to look up during your tour and take in the majestic views of the Kaimai ranges and Mt Te Aroha.
