Overview

    This is a once in a life-time experience and different from any other Glowworm Tour you'll go on!

    Our adventure begins late afternoon / early evening at Lake District Adventures' base in South Waikato. Paddle along the southern edge of Lake Karapiro, over the old submerged Horahora Dam that produced electricity for the early Waihi goldfields.

    Learn the history of the Horahora village and enjoy the twilight & silence of being on the water as the day draws to an end.

    As night arrives over the lake , paddle slowly up the Pokaiwhenua Stream and through the canyon carved out by water over many hundreds of years. Native ferns & trees drape over you, bird life is all around.

    When darkness falls we float silently back downstream, being guided by the glow worms on either side sparkling like Christmas lights.

What's Included

  • Kayak, PFD, Splash Pants/Jackets, Wetshoes
