Begin with a pickup from your Te Anau accommodation and head 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.

Disembark at Cosy Nook and enjoy a morning tea with freshly baked treats. Then, walk along the Kepler Track, recognised as a Great Walk of New Zealand. Surrounded by native forests filled with beech and rimu trees, 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.
