IS THIS TRIP FOR YOU?
The Paddle n’ Walk will suit you if:
- You’re a beginner kayaker who doesn’t want to paddle too far.
- You would rather not paddle out into the fiord.
- You want to enjoy a remote, guided scenic walk.
- You love to enjoy nature in peace & quiet.

Note: This trip does not go out into the fiord. If you would rather spend more time on the water and paddle the fiord, the Sunriser Classic or Milford Cruiser might suit you better, or book a kayak trip that goes out into the fjord in the morning and the short paddle and guided walk on the Milford Track in the afternoon to make the most of your time in Milford.
