What you can expect

Your day of adventure starts at first light with a scenic drive to Mangatepopo, the start of the Tongariro Alpine Hike. Your local guide will provide weather information, a map, and an information sheet before sending you on your journey.

Your 20km hike follows spring-fed streams to the base of the Devils staircase. A steep ascent will reward you with your first views of Mt Taranaki and the breathtaking landscape.

The hike continues past old lava flows, vast craters, and dramatic rock formations. You will cross the Red Crater Ridge to admire the Emerald Lakes, before descending to see the lakes up close.

Your 6-8 hour hike comes to an end in Ketetahi car park.
