Te Araroa: Tales from the Trails Whanganui
Pio heads off the beaten track by jet boat on the historical Whanganui River. Pio goes hunting with a Blue Duck conservationist who artfully transforms a pest into a curry, unearths his inner cowboy on a horse trek and discovers kayaking is harder than it looks.
Te Araroa: Tales from the Trails is a fresh look at Aotearoa by foot, allowing Pio Terei to connect with the people and local histories in a very real way. All the while, the unspoilt landscapes hark back to a time when Maori and Pakeha explorers first encountered this land.
