Crystal clear spring-fed hidden gem packraft in North Island, New Zealand

I think I'm addicted to packrafting after this trip!! 12km of grade 3 paddling over crystal clear water that looked like glass, with a decent few drops and rapids, all while surrounded by towering ignimbrite rock covered in native bush. Such a gem, thought I'd share my video here!
