What To Expect

A unique kayak adventure, only minutes from Franz Josef Glacier! Set out across Lake Mapourika's mirror-like water and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding Southern Alps and Glaciers.

Lake Mapourika was created by the mighty Franz Josef Glacier as it retreated some 14 000 years ago, now it sits sandwiched between the Southern Alps and the Tasman Sea. The glassy water and unbeatable views make it one of the scenic gems of the West Coast.

Explore a kiwi sanctuary set amidst some of the oldest untouched rainforest in Westland!

This tour lasts up to three hours and is designed to complete your Glacier Country Experience!
