Spend your evenings in cozy campsites and bustling huts, swimming in pristine lakes, eating delicious food, and sleeping under the starry skies.

Day 1: Auckland to Tarawera

We meet at 7am in downtown Auckland before travelling south to Rotorua, stopping for coffee on the way. Rotorua is known for its geothermal activity, volcanic landscapes, and rich Māori history shaped by the 1886 Mt Tarawera eruption. From Lake Tarawera we take a midday water taxi to access the trail, hiking beside clear lake waters under towering tree ferns and ignimbrite cliffs, with time for a swim and wide views across forest, lakes, and distant volcanoes.

Day 2: Tarawera to Whirinaki

After packing our gear, we drive east into the rugged forest ranges of Te Urewera, the traditional homeland of the Tūhoe people and one of the last regions settled by Europeans. After a picnic lunch en route, we reach Whirinaki Forest, a preserved remnant of ancient Gondwanaland forest. Our hike descends gently through native beech forest to a forest hut beside the Whirinaki River, where we relax, swim, and enjoy a shared evening meal surrounded by wilderness.

The day is rich in birdlife, with chances to spot blue ducks, robins, and hear the call of the kākā. Walking beneath towering tree ferns and magnificent podocarp rainforest, we explore one of New Zealand’s most pristine ecosystems. An optional side track leads into ancient rata forest. Later, a short drive brings us to rural cabins where we unwind with hot showers and an evening by the fire.

At Lake Taupō, the largest lake in New Zealand, we enjoy takeaway food by the shore before continuing to Tongariro National Park. We arrive at our lodge near Whakapapa Village in time to relax and prepare for the alpine days ahead.

Elevation: +900 m (3,000 ft) / -1,250 m (4,100 ft)

Day 6: Whakapapa to Waihohonu Hut

After yesterday’s big effort, we enjoy a slower-paced morning before driving to the eastern side of the park. Today’s walk follows a quieter route across open tussock country and patches of beech forest, offering a different perspective of the volcanic plateau. We arrive at Waihohonu Hut by early afternoon, with time to relax, explore nearby viewpoints, and enjoy sweeping volcano views from the common room.

Lodging & food

Cabins, hotels, lodges, camps

Wild nights will be spent in the wilderness, in backcountry huts or camping in locations that may be several hours walk from the nearest road or populated area. On nights in civilization, you may stay in cabins, hotels, lodges or camp by the vehicle at Department of Conservation campsites. Some of these locations may still be relatively remote and in the wilderness but they can be reached by the vehicle. You’ll get to a shower generally every 1-2 days, otherwise there are rivers to swim in and freshwater to wash with. Check out the itinerary to learn about accommodation day-by-day.

You will camp in a range of campsites, mostly containing long drop (pit) toilets. There will be rivers or lakes nearby for a swim, and sometimes even natural hot pools! If the weather is not great for camping, eg very wet, stormy or very cold conditions, your guide will seek out alternative accommodation.

Huts are equipped with mattresses, running water and an outside toilet. Cooking is done on a portable stove. Huts are only accessible on foot and shared with other hikers. On some of the nights, you will stay in lodges, often conveniently located near the start or end of a hike. They usually have multi-share and sometimes twin/double rooms. Finally, some nights may be spent in private cribs (summer house) or cabins at a campground. Staying in the cribs is a real authentic New Zealand experience and you may even start to feel like a kiwi!

Food

Meals are a highlight of the trip—a time to rest, refuel, and unwind together after active days outside. Your guides coordinate everything, with the group pitching in to keep things relaxed and social. Expect hearty, satisfying camp food: barbecues, fresh salads, pancakes, curries, pasta, stir-fries, and simple one-pot meals on more remote nights (including a few well-loved “secret” recipes). There’s always a solid supply of snacks—chocolate, nuts, dried fruit, biscuits—and your guides carry all the cooking equipment needed, from gas burners and frying pans to portable stoves for overnight hikes.

Vegetarian diets and most common food intolerances can be accommodated. If you have specific or restrictive dietary needs, please let us know when booking so your guides can plan accordingly.

Ali

Ali’s path to guiding has been shaped by extensive experience teaching outdoor skills in New Zealand and overseas. Alongside calm, confident leadership, he has a natural ability to connect with guests and help them get the most from their journey. When he’s not guiding, Ali works as an outdoor instructor, volunteers on a mentoring programme that gives young people access to outdoor experiences, and—together with his partner—fosters rescue dogs.

Jeremy

Growing up near the Southern Alps with hiking parents sparked Jeremy’s lifelong love for the outdoors. He’s been fortunate enough to turn that passion into a career, working as an outdoor instructor and guide around the world for nearly 20 years. These days, he gets to work in his playground—sharing his boundless enthusiasm for adventure, travel and discovery.

Daniel

Daniel started out as a hiking guide in Spain in the 90s, and later on he became a backcountry guide in New Zealand. Daniel has the enviable job of tour research and development, so he’s always on the go. Other than hiking, he loves spending his time mountain running and biking.

5.00

Oliver

Hailing from Canada, Oli moved to New Zealand after retiring as a professional cyclist. Keen to stay deeply connected to the outdoors, he set off exploring the backcountry and was instantly captivated by the country’s unique flora and fauna, as well as the strong conservation values of the people he met along the way. That passion led him into conservation work, and today he channels his legendary stamina into both conservation projects and guiding.

5.00

Kath

Originally from Oregon on the west coast of the USA, Kath knew she’d found home almost as soon as she stepped off the plane in New Zealand in her early 20s. These days she lives on a beautiful organic farm in the winterless Far North, shared with six other families, where she grows most of her own food and has the outdoors right on her doorstep. Her love of nature and practical outdoor living has led her from landscaping to running a small tree nursery, and now to guiding—where she brings an infectious enthusiasm for all things Kiwi.

5.00

Justin

Justin grew up on a dairy farm in the Manawatū region of the North Island, but wanderlust soon took hold. He worked as a Department of Conservation ranger across the country, with stints of travel in Asia and South America along the way, before guiding became his long-term calling. With a degree in Sustainable Communities and a deep knowledge of New Zealand’s natural and cultural history, Justin is endlessly fascinating to chat with—and loves connecting people to the places that mean so much to him.

5.00

Marios

He may not have the most Kiwi of names, but since arriving in New Zealand over 20 years ago, Marios has never stopped exploring. He’s ventured deep into the far corners of these uplifted islands, sometimes researching walking and historical guides along the way. Through meeting extraordinary locals and uncovering rich layers of history and culture, Marios brings depth, insight and context to the landscapes he shares with guests.

5.00

Adrienne

Adrienne’s adventurous career has seen her wear many hats: mentoring at-risk youth, teaching in classrooms in New Zealand and Australia, packing parachutes, supporting skydiving operations, and carrying out remote conservation work in the Southern Alps and on the Chatham Islands. Growing up in an outdoorsy Nelson family made guiding second nature. With a science degree and a conservationist’s heart, Adrienne is happiest outside—whether sea kayaking, mountain biking, hiking, camping or surfing—and she brings it all together with a big, beaming smile.

5.00

Louis

Born and raised on Waiheke Island in the Hauraki Gulf, Louis grew up immersed in the outdoors and Aotearoa’s strong conservation ethos. Homegrown and overseas adventures followed, alongside a degree in International Relations and Sociology and hands-on work across a range of conservation projects. All of this has shaped his passion for connecting people to Aotearoa’s landscapes, species and stories. A natural storyteller, Louis hopes his enthusiasm and anecdotes bring these places vividly to life.

Malcolm

Even before he could walk, Malcolm was carried through New Zealand wilderness in a pack on his father’s back. Since those early days, he has hiked, climbed, sea kayaked, a mountain biked throughout the country and the globe. Malcolm squeezed in time to get a degree in physical geography and co-authored a guidebook, Classic New Zealand Adventures. Based in Auckland Malcolm keeps the North Island team singing and itineraries humming.

|April 2025

Malcolm is the quintessential kiwi guide; charming, funny, very knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. I had a blast on this adventure. We loaded up and went out to explore the two very different climate zones of the Whirinaki Forest Trail and the Tongariro Alpine Crossing with many stops in between. Lovely swimming in Lake Taupo. Great group.

Heather L.

|February 2025

Rainforest hikes to get us ready for the Tongariro Alpine Crossing were great to build up our confidence and built a terrific team. Sleeping on the hut’s porch on a stary night was exquisite. It was nice to be offered additional options to see even more fabulous scenery. Louis knowledge of the area, its natural features and stories made for a great hike. I would highly recommend Hiking New Zealand
