Indeed, <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>if you give a go to the Whanganui Journey you will paddle during 3 or 5 days, surrounded by nature, in the Whanganui National Park crossed by the same name river. If you choose to go for 3 days you will travel 88 kilometres. Whereas If you decide to go for 5 days of adventure you will have to paddle 145 kilometres. No matter what you choose do not forget <a class=\"lien-post\" href=\"https:\/\/booking.doc.govt.nz\/Menu.aspx?sg=WJY\">to book your nights in the D.O.C\u2019s huts or campsites<\/a> beforehand if you would like to do this great walk during the high season (October to April). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Once it\u2019s done you just need to pack your bags before your departure to this adventure! There are no shop on the Whanganui Journey so you would better not to forget something! Most importantly , take a big bottle of water that you will be able to refill and sufficient food for the three to five days. Here is some important items too : sleeping bag, kitchen utensil, toilet paper, sun cream, repellent and bin bags. There are no bins at the campsites and huts so you will have to keep your garbages with you. Bringing earplugs can be useful as everybody will sleep in the same room. If you are afraid to forget something feel free to have a look at <a class=\"lien-post\" href=\"http:\/\/www.doc.govt.nz\/whanganuijourney#page-id-7075\">the D.O.C list here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Regarding this Great Walk accessibility I might as well tell you right away that it is not accessible at all for wheelchair users. Firstly as you will have to transfer from your wheelchair to the canoe and then the shuttles and huts are not accessible. This being said if you have the capacity to walk a bit, a friend to help you during transfer and the desire to go for canoe adventure do not hesitate. Just go for it and your efforts will be rewarded. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Let\u2019s go to Okahune, a small city where we will reach the company renting canoes and where we will sleep the night before the beginning of this trip. Once we arrived we met the manager who explained us how things will be the following day. He also showed us your room and gave us three barils in order to fil them with stuffs we will take on the river. Think to put all the things you will need to access in the boat (water, sun cream, repellent, snacks) in the same baril. That way you\u2019ll be able to reach them more easily. In half an hour that was done! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Once the Tetris baril game is over, it is time for our first reward: from our room we can see Mount Ruapehu also known as the Mordor in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I am so glad to be able to contemplate this volcano once more, a few months after <a class=\"lien-post\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/en\/taupo-wheelchair\/\">my first visit in Taupo<\/a>&nbsp;and <a class=\"lien-post\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/en\/sit-ski-disabled-handicap-new-zealand-ruapehu\/\">my first sit ski experience<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2046\" style=\"width: 1052px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2046\" class=\"wp-image-2046\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052-300x200.jpg?resize=1000%2C666\" alt=\"A last look before the sun is gone.\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2046\" class=\"wp-image-2046 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201042%20694%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"A last look before the sun is gone.\" width=\"1042\" height=\"694\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%201042%20694%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 1042w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2052-300x200.jpg\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2046\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A last look before the sun is gone.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_1_From_Whakahoro_to_John_Coull_Hut\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\">Day 1: From Whakahoro to John Coull Hut<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Let\u2019s go for 37 km to paddle on the river today.

On some days if the maoris are in Te Kainga you might enjoy a powhiri, a welcoming ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2060\" style=\"width: 959px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2060\" class=\"wp-image-2060\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109-300x200.jpg?resize=949%2C633\" alt=\"One marae but no powhiri for us today.\" width=\"949\" height=\"633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2060\" class=\"wp-image-2060 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20949%20633%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"One marae but no powhiri for us today.\" width=\"949\" height=\"633\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20949%20633%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 949w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?w=2000&amp;ssl=1 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109.jpg?w=3000&amp;ssl=1 3000w\" data-src=\"http:\/\/www.iwheeltravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/DSCF2109-300x200.jpg\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2060\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One marae but no powhiri for us today.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_3_From_Tieke_Kainga_to_Pipiriki\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\">Day 3 : From Tieke Kainga to Pipiriki<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">During this third and last day we have to travel 21,5km.

Although we still enjoy this last part as we have to go through the three biggest rapids of the Whanganui Journey. Like the others canoeists we feared them a bit and we accepted the idea of finishing the trip in the water. In the end, crossing all those rapids is the thing I preferred during these three days. And the Tui birds songs of course! Handling these waves gave me a lot of fun and a bit of challenge! I had a good laugh crossing them even if we could have capsize anytime. At the end we stayed dry, only three others canoes capsized and everybody succeeded to reach the arrival at time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">A short summary of this three days in two minutes! <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/t6LF2iJLPrI?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">After a 40 minutes shuttle ride to come back in Okahune and a 3h30 drive to Wellington, we are back home. This few days were so short, too short. I was waiting impatiently for this Great Walk and I wasn\u2019t disappointed at all. Unlike what I feared I wasn\u2019t too tired at the end and I didn\u2019t get bored. I would like to continue to paddle for some more hours. I really liked being in the middle of the nature during three days without network and electricity. It made feel so good to be completely disconnected !<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You want to travel all around New Zealand?
