Excursion Lake mclaren kayaking tour at Tauranga

McLaren Falls Park is 190 hectares of parkland set alongside Lake McLaren and is home to one of the best botanical collections of trees in New Zealand. Lake McLaren is a popular area for kayaking with its calm waters, beautiful surroundings and plenty of good picnicking spots.

Enjoy an easy-pace scenic guided kayaking tour on the wonderful calm Lake McLaren where serenity takes a new name. Gently paddle past a multitude of birdlife, literally within paddle's reach. Sheer cliffs break the stark lush native bush as gentle streams enter the lake's edge. Paddle into the stunning Mangapapa canyon with water as deep as the cliffs on the sides, where the native bush appears to touch and form a cave.
