Gambier
Island
Return to Númenor Return to Númenor     (Gambier Island)
Join us on our trek to the island of Númenor, where you will paddle and hike in search of this fabled lost isle of the Western Sea. When you reach Númenor you will be given provisions to set up your camp for the night. After you and your Hobbit Scouts have dinner (or supper, or afternoon tea, or second breakfast) you will be invited to take part in the Quest for the Ring of Númenor Lake. The Hobbit Patrol that finds the Ring will be able to claim it as their own. The next morning you will leave the lake and return to Middle Earth. The road home is never quite the same, so you will make your way back the opposite way: If you paddled over, you will hike back, if you hiked up, you will canoe back.
.
The Hike is approx. 8 km, while Canoe Trip is approx 6 km with a approx hike of 1.5 km hike. For this adventure you will need to bring good hiking boots and a compass. Canoe experience is an excellent idea as you will be using 10 man canoes in Howe Sound,
