The Tongariro Northern Circuit is one of New Zealand’s ‘Great Walks’. Crossing over the foothills of Mt Tongariro and Mt Ngauruhoe, the Northern Circuit requires a moderate level of fitness. The track is well marked and easy to follow. The Great Walk hiking season runs from late October through till the end of April, depending on snow cover.
The Tongariro Northern circuit spans 45 kms and can be completed in 3-4 days. The track is most commonly started in Whakapapa Village, but can also be started at the Mangatepopo carpark if time is short.
Planning is crucial. During the great walk season (20 October 2023 to 30 April 2024), the huts and campsites have to be booked online. See fees and booking information or download the Tongariro Northern Circuit brochure.
It is important to be aware that the Tongariro is an active volcanic area, and eruptions are possible at any time. You will pass or come near three active vents on your journey; Mount Ngauruhoe, the Red Crater, and Te Maari Craters. Volcanic hazard zones surround all of these vents so keep your wits about you and ‘know’ that in the case of an eruption, you will be in danger if you are in any of these areas.
Our confirmation letters have safety messages from the Department of Conservation covering: Volcanic hazards /Mountain Protocols/ Weather guidance Next Step Check out the DoC website for all the track information you’ll need.
