Come with Wanaka River Journeys on the most exciting half day Jet Boating adventure in New Zealand beneath the spectacular scenery of Glaciers & Lord of the Rings film locations, into Mount Aspiring National Park, part of Te Wahipounamu World Heritage area.

Location: The Matukituki River. Beyond stunning, the Matukituki is the most spectacular jet boating river in New Zealand.

Flowing from Glaciers, the pristine waters of the Matukituki River are perfect to experience the skills of experienced jet boat drivers as they travel at speed over shallow braids, drift into turns and yes… those jet spins will sometimes get you wet, stopping in deep pools to breathe in the magic of the landscape & hear stories of the land from your local guides

And there is MORE…

Deep in the mountains & off the beaten track, enjoy a 50-minute remote walk through a moss covered forest and glacier fed stream into McGills Creek. Hear stories from your guide of our people and our land and enjoy photo opportunities of this unique ice carved landscape not to be missed.
