Thrills and Spins in Queenstown: Dart River Safari
|
|
|
A wilderness adventure, with a jet-boat ride on a glacier- fed river and a walk in ancient forest
| Attractions and things to do - Thrills and Spins in Queenstown: Dart River Safari | |
|
Located just 45 minutes from Queenstown in the frontier town of Glenorchy, is a nature lover’s paradise of rare and special beauty. Embark on an adventurous journey into the pristine wilderness of Te Waihipounamu, a World Heritage Area deep into the heart of Mt Aspiring National Park, in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. This journey offers you three full hours of classic Jet Boat action as your expert driver negotiates the shifting shallow braided channels of the magnificent glacier-fed Dart River and adds to the excitement with thrilling jet spins. Take a short and easy walk through ancient forests, unchanged for 80 million years. Explore a region filled with spectacular vistas which have inspired many talented film makers to bring their projects to this area, including Lord of the Rings.
