–► The Guide to the Tongariro Alpine Crossingy –► https://nzpocketguide.com/guidetoth...

"The forces of the earth can be seen at work at the surface: this is what the Tongariro Alpine Crossing is all about, as well as one hell of a workout. You could almost be mistaken for walking on another planet go across a landscape of craters, active volcanoes, scattered pumice, mountain springs, lava flows, scoria and mounds of volcanic rock looking like they have been carved into statues. Then you have a contrast of colours with the perfect blue and emerald lakes to the fiery red crater. No wonder the Tongariro Crossing is often described as one of New Zealand’s best oneday hikes. The area is also famous for its runin with Mt Ngauruhoe, or to the Lord of the Rings fans, Mt Doom of Mordor.

The 19.4km (12mile) hike high into a volcanic alpine environment is a mustdo in New Zealand but does require a bit of preparation, from packing the right equipment to booking your transport. You don’t have to be incredibly fit for this walk, just prepared and determined!"
