New Zealand Trek & Raft Adventures
New Zealand Trek & Raft Adventures
Hike high. Raft wild. Journey deep into the Southern Alps.
Step into the heart of New Zealand’s wilderness with a unique blend of alpine trekking and remote river travel. Our Trek & Raft Adventures take you on spectacular trans-alpine routes — tramping over mountain passes, then rafting out through untouched valleys and deep gorges few ever see.
These journeys combine backcountry hiking, alpine crossings, and pack rafting or guided raft exits, offering an immersive experience from summit to river. With expert guiding, remote camps or rustic backcountry huts, and carefully curated routes, you’ll travel through some of the most pristine corners of the Southern Alps — where the only way out is downstream.
