The Tongariro Alpine Crossing is heralded as the best one-day trek in New Zealand and is regarded as among the top ten single-day treks in the world.
Many who complete the 19.4-kilometer journey will tell you the climbs can be steep and the weather unpredictable, though worth it in every aspect.
If you are walking the Tongariro Alpine Crossing independently please note that this is a point to point hike, so a shuttle needs to be organised to get you to the start of the Crossing. The summer season runs from the end of October to the end of April.
