Brodrick Pass Walk- Landsborough River Rafting
Brodrick Pass Walk / Landsborough River Rafting
New Zealand has so much to offer, but we’ve done the research and personally selected the “best of the best” for you.
This is a chance to see one of New Zealand's most remote, untouched, unspoiled areas, visited by only a privileged few.
Our premium, fully-guided package combines a walk off the beaten track, with rafting the Landsborough River, which is in a World Heritage Area.
ITINERARY
Day 1
Arrive at Lake Wanaka. Unwind with a three course meal including a barbeque with your iTrek hosts, and enjoy a local wine.
Day 2
Drive to Ohau Lodge, then through the Hopkins Valley. A gentle 2 to 3 hour walk to Forks Hut, and climb for 2 ½ hours to Broderick Hut.
Day 3
Up to 1400 feet today, until close to Broderick Pass, where you spend the night. Enjoy the stunning views!
Day 4
Descend into the Landsborough Valley from the open tops, into native bush. You will meet your helicopter and be flown to the campsite. Relax and enjoy a 3 course meal.
Day 5
After a leisurely breakfast and safety briefing, you start your rafting experience. There is 5 hours of it today, from heart-pumping adrenalin action to sedate relaxing sections where you have time to enjoy the landscape. After a picnic lunch you arrive at Harbers Bluff camp. There will be ample time to explore before another excellent dinner.
Day 6
Board your raft and travel to Purple Creek before hiking to explore the waterfalls. Then enjoy a therapeutic float downstream to Clarke Bluff. You take the bus back to Wanaka where you will stay with your iTrek hosts.
Day 7
Depart and continue your journey in this wonderful part of New Zealand.
