What you’ll do

The Whanganui River was without a doubt one of my favorite parts of the Te Araroa Trail and is a section that I would highly recommend hikers take the opportunity to canoe! In this itinerary I'll share a breakdown of my five days on the river and where I camped along the way. (Please keep in mind current river levels and tide times may affect how far you travel each day).
