Finish Tongariro Alpine Crossing Trail - Ketetahi side

It was amazon experience like it was my dream to complete this walk since i came in Newzealand . And i did it . Their is lots of time i think i have to go back but then i did it ..

Such an amazing walk! Highly recommend to anyone traveling or any local kiwis who have never done this walk. We managed the walk just fine in trainers alone, would definitely try and pick a nice day to get a good view.

WOW where do we start, the views, the walk, the challenge, the experience. You just have to do it to appreciate the awesome beauty of transversing a mountain that is also an active volcano. The BUT is be prepared as it is a challenging 20km hike over a mountain and although the weather on our day was perfect it can change in a moment, so be prepared with warm and wet weather clothing and do some training before you attempt this hike as no Uber at the top if you have had enough and the last 3km is tough on tired legs.But just do it as life is too short not to experience what you can

Mount Doom!!! Make sure you have good weather, then it's totally worth going.

Beautiful location but be sure to follow our example and start from the correct end of the pass, the other end has a lot more elevation and earned us a lot of skeptical looks on the way up.

Absolutely amazing walk definitely worth the trip down. Definitely do your research prior to walking this in regards to weather and what you need to take and booking a shuttle beforehand as there a parking time limits of 4hours on each end. There is a fb group specifically for the Tongariro crossing highly recommend joining it

Such a great hike! They say this is one of the best day hike in the world, and it's BY FAR the best hike I've ever done. It's just beautiful every single step of the way. Do be aware, though, that this can be a difficult hike and only gets more difficult with bad weather. The summit has one side of loose gravel that can be hard going down or up. But it's all worth it!

The best experience ever. Breathtaking landscapes every minutes. Don't forget to look back sometimes. There will be another stunning sceneries in different ways.Even though you have to take this place slowly, please don't give up!You are able to see those landscapes only here![Tips]* Since it is one way crossing, the shuttle must be arranged.* It would take between 6 and 8 hours.* I have put a sunblock cream 4 times during the cross, but I got serious sunburn on my right shoulder. ( I usually get tanned not sunburnt.)A hat or UV block products are MUST in summer.* It is quite windy at the top. I didn't need a windproof jacket, but I had to use earmuffs.* The top part is quite slippery due to sand. It will be much dangerous in winter with frost or snow.* Lots of people said they had experienced 4 seasons. So be prepared.Hope this helps and you enjoy Tongariro!

It was great experience to walk on active volcanos. Awesome.
