EXPERIENCE SUMMARY

 Jet Boat & Kepler Track Hike offers an exhilarating day of adventure and natural beauty. This small-group tour, limited to 12, includes a thrilling jet boat ride on the Waiau River and a guided walk through stunning native forests.

We’ll pick you up from your Te Anau accommodation and take you to the Waiau River for an exciting jet boat ride. Cruise through Lord of the Rings film locations to the crystal-clear waters of Lake Manapouri, where you might find yourself the only boat on the lake.

You’ll disembark at Cosy Nook where you’ll enjoy a morning tea with freshly baked treats. Then, walk along the Kepler Track hosted by your guide, recognised as a Great Walk of NZ. Surrounded by native forests filled with beech and rimu trees you’ll make a stop along the track to enjoy your picnic lunch, spot native birds and capture endless photo opportunities.

The hike ends at the Rainbow Reach suspension bridge, where your guide will transport you back to Te Anau.
