Tramping hiking trekking backpacking walking Adventures
The Tongariro Crossing – NZ’s best one-day hike.*
The Tongariro crossing track passes over varied and spectacular volcanic terrain. In the presence of active volcanoes, you can experience some of Tongariro National Park’s special charms- a cold mountain spring, lava flows, an active crater, steam vents, emerald- coloured lakes and magnificent views.
Tongariro Northern Circuit- ‘Great Walk” of NZ.*
This three-day trek winds its way over Mt Tongariro and around Mt Ngauruhoe, passing through unique and stunning landforms which include volcanic craters and glacial valleys ending with the famous Tongariro Crossing.
These trips can be done any time of year summer and winter. During winter you have the opportunity to walk on glaciers and snow-fields using crampons and enjoy all the sights of summer but without the crowds.
You don’t need to be experienced or super-fit or to have expensive tramping gear – we can provide you with all equipment needed
Whanganui River Canoe Adventures*
1 day to 6 days
Gently paddle through the unspoilt beauty of the Whanganui River National Park. Be amazed by the stunning gorges and the lush native forest. The Whanganui is an extremely safe river to navigate, however there are a number of small rapids that will increase the adrenaline flow and offer the chance of a refreshing dunk in the water.
Accommodation is either in tents or DoC huts. All equipment is provided
Great Walks of New Zealand
*The Whanganui River Journey, Tongariro Crossing and Tongariro Northern Circuit are all classified as Department of Conservation’s (DoC’s) ‘Great Walks’ of NZ. They pass through some of the best scenery in the country and the huts and tracks are of a higher standard than other areas.
Coromandel Sea Kayak
The Beauty of the Coromandel coastline is best enjoyed by sea. Spend the day paddling, fishing, snorkeling and swimming.
