North Island ultimate day walks

1 minute

Find your ultimate day hike collection of walks. New Zealand North Island has the showpiece Tongariro Crossing as a drawcard. From alpine day experience on Mount Taranaki to following a historic pack route up The Pinnacles in the Coromandel, New Zealand day walks offer diverse scenery and sometimes challenging terrain. Perhaps your favourite will be a city walk with a difference; the Southern Walkway or Auckland’s volcanic island, Rangitoto. Walks where you are not a visitor, rather you are part of New Zealand’s backyard.
