The Experience

Gather your family and friends for a unique kayaking adventure along the stunning Waikato River, starting from Epworth camp. Paddle toward the enchanting Pokaiwhenua stream, where the canyon, adorned with native ferns, transforms into a mesmerizing glowworm display as twilight sets in. After savoring some of New Zealand’s finest wines and delicious cheeses by a cozy campfire, glide back downstream, illuminated solely by the soft light of the glowworms. This experience offers a magical alternative to traditional cave visits for viewing glowworms, all under the guidance of our certified and experienced Boatshed guides.
