Your Dart River Funyak trip is an amazing escape deep into the heart of the world-renowned Mt Aspiring National Park and an opportunity to get close to nature. Funyak inflatable kayaks offer a fun and unique way to explore the Dart River as well as its hidden side streams, rock pools and dramatic chasms. Take it slow as you drift and paddle your way along the Dart River into the serene surroundings that provided the backdrop to Peter Jackson’s Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings movies. Then travel a back-country route passing by locations used in the movies to illustrate Middle Earth.
