About

At 17 km return, it’s a fantastic alternative to the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. Part of the Tongariro Northern Circuit Great Walk, the track sits in the heart of Tongariro National Park, a UNESCO Dual World Heritage site.

Formed by eruptions around 10,000 years ago, the Tama Lakes sit within ancient craters, with surrounding cliffs showcasing the park’s oldest lava flows.
