TONGARIRO NORTHERN CIRCUIT

 

 

The Tongariro Northern Circuit winds its way over Mt Tongariro and around Mt Ngaruahoe and is one of the Great Walks of New Zealand. The hike normally starts and finishes from Whakapapa Village as a 3-4 day hike, but can be done as a shorter 2 day hike, by skiping the first stage and starting from Mangatepopo and finishing at Whakapapa Village.
