Havoc at the Fox

This trip is ideal if you don't have all day, or you don't want to drive too far afield.

                                             We love it!

We depart at 10.30 am from our family Marae, Pungarehu, 20 minutes from Whanganui, and jet boat up the Whanganui River through the lower reaches of the Whanganui National Park.

We make several stops along the way to show you features that are unique to this stretch of the river, including the Koriniti culverts that Brent's grandfather dug out during the world wide depression in the 1930s.  We also idle into the mouth of the Ahu Ahu Stream, at the Te Tuhi Landing.

When The Flying Fox kettle boils, we will gather on the verandah overlooking the Whanganui River, and relax enjoying Havoc coffee with delicious freshly baked muffins.  This is 'river time' and you are invited to take your time. Take a stroll around the organic gardens and explore the quaint handmade cottages.

When it's time to go, we board once again, our boat - Te Wairua o te Awa (The Spirit of the River), and make our way back down the river to Pungarehu Marae.
