Azverazge Time To Chaznge Sid

paddles on the "other "side of the earth

The variety of rivers in New Zealand is impressive, Is there still any conceivable type of water: shallow water to white water and the steep gully to the mighty river. These multiples lt distributed only two islands, is magnificent.



perfect weather and light on the Hurunui River WW



No road e? Then the shuttle walk is done here at the river Styx. When support system have to be creative.



"Sea Kayak" tour in the Abel Tasman National Park


To come to the really exciting rivers, one must resort to the helicopter and hire a pilot. It is a great shuttle, since the flow can be scouted from above and only one car is needed. But be careful: what looks from above like WW II, is "mostly" a bit heavier (class IV-V) ;-).


fun the Perth river


The Carnage Gorge on the river again Kokatahi is mobile.

A landslide at the end of Carnage Gorge has the otherwise insurmountable return in the water drowned and the 1-2hours long and arduous portages made unnecessary (hopefully it will long remain so). Even without a portage around the Gorge took us 9.5 hours to get to the cars.


Arahura poses at the river, "cesspit"

Each time, the Salto a faithful companion. The low weight of the Eskimo kayak was so many Mitpaddler green with envy.

After NZ before NZ! Hopefully it's soon back to winter paradise. However, before planned so far in the future, we go to Corsica. We expect dream water levels.


soon, Dany Fenzl
