Canoe & Kayak Adventures

Canoe & Kayak North Shore offers a variety of sea kayak training and tours in an area that is one of Auckland's best-kept secrets. Our guided tours operate just 20 minutes from Downtown Auckland. The Long Bay-Okura Marine Reserve is home to an abundance of wildlife and historic sites. Stingray frequent the bay to feed, and resident rays Mertyl and Turtle are usually the first to pop by to say hello. The bay is also home to a number of rare seabirds, like the NZ dotterel, the variable oystercatcher and the godwit. We also cater to groups with tours to the historic Riverhead Tavern & Puhoi settlements.

Milford Foreshore Walk

Reviewed By steved333

I would not do this instead of a cruise, but it was a nice addition. We took a cruise when it was cloudy and couldn’t resist revisiting the next day when it was sunny. The short walk gives you views to Mitre Peak and the sound. We did not find the sand flies overwhelming, but I guess they can be bad.

Key Summit Track

Always check the website for changes that might affect your trip. See website for the price of accommodation on this track.

Reviewed By mcmoscato - Annandale, United States

Key Summit is an outstanding easy excursion from the Milford Road or a quick side-trip from the Routeburn Track. The climb to Key Summit begins at The Divide trailhead, and starts on the Routeburn Track heading toward the Lake Howden and Lake Mackenzie Huts. The track is well graded and passes through pleasant forest with limited views. After a gradual climb a signed intersection points the way to the Key Summit Track, which veers above the Routeburn. The smooth track heads uphill via a series of moderate switchbacks. As the trail emerges from the forest, there are outstanding views down the Hollyford Valley as a taste of the more expansive views to come. Near the top of the climb the trail forks as part of a worthwhile nature loop. The route meanders on the high summit ridge, past beautiful tarns and with many outstanding viewpoints. The turnaround point is the Lake Marian Viewpoint, where you can just see Lake Marian perched in a high hanging valley in the Darran Mountains across the Hollyford Valley. After completing the summit nature loop, head back down the way you came. It's about 4-5 miles in total ~ 2 hours and while steep in some places not a hard hike and rewarding with magnificent views

Browns Bay Beach

Lovely beach, one of my favourites on the North Shore. Nice and long and always something going on there. They have a large kids playground too so fun for the younger ones as well as tables and seats for that takeaway on the beach.
