Tongariro Alpine Crossing Hike

Take on New Zealand’s most iconic day hike across the dramatic landscapes of Tongariro National Park. Traverse alpine ridges, pass steaming vents, and gaze into neon-blue crater lakes under the shadow of Mount Ngauruhoe (a.k.a. Mt Doom). Though not for the faint-hearted, the crossing rewards with lunar terrain, epic views, and a deep connection to the land’s raw volcanic power and Māori mythology.
