Adventure trip

Storms River Mouth

Activity Description

With this four hour Extended Kayak and Lilo trip you will get to explore deeper into the hidden world of the Storms River gorge with long, bottomless pools, deep caves and ancient forests with nothing but the quiet noises of nature around you.

We will equip you with a uniquely designed Anvil which is a combination of the kayak and lilo. But don’t let the name fool you; they are easy to paddle but you do need to be fit and strong be able to carry the Anvils over rocks, but the beauty is well worth the hard work!

We start at our shop just above the small harbor inside the National Park, here you will meet your guides and receive all your gear. Please leave valuables in your vehicle, we do provide crates to store change of clothes. After a briefing we depart with two experienced guides leading the trip. We starts with a hike through the forest and over the famous suspension bridge where our Kayaks will be waiting for us. Here we continue the adventure on the normal Kayak and Lilo route. where we normally turn around with the Lilo’s you will go deeper into the gorge equipped with our Anvil boats.

The Anvil is a new generation hydro speed and making it ideal for technical river running. With this experience you will get to see more of the Storms River Gorge and enjoy the beautiful ravine with its awe experience and scenery that you will never forget.

We had a very pleasant trip through the gorge of Storms River Mouth. We took the long one. The guides were great and very helpfull they even bothered to taken pictures for us.
