Hiking Tours in New Zealand

A little country that packs a massive punch – New Zealand’s scenery is off the scale

New Zealand Hiking Tours

The home of the fabled All Blacks may be a very, very long way, but hiking tours in New Zealand offer diversity that few others countries come close to. From the bustling city of Auckland to the breathtaking South Island, the Land of the Long White Cloud is blessed with sublime forests, awesome mountains, crystal-clear lakes, beaches and fjords.

It’s perhaps one of the best hiking (or ‘tramping’, to locals) locations on Earth. And whether you’re glacier walking or strolling along a beach, on trips to New Zealand there’s always something to marvel at. That could be a night camping on the beach at Abel Tasman National Park or gazing at the reflection of the glacier on Lake Crucible – so clear and sharp.

There’s no doubting the natural beauty of such a peaceful country. It’s blessed with a rich history, while its people are among the friendliest in the world. Exodus’ range of New Zealand tours are perfect for those who like to stay active, incorporating treks to take in the primeval landscape of Rotorua and the impressive peaks of Mount Cook National Park. A visit to New Zealand for Hiking truly is the trip of a lifetime.

What are the must-see highlights of our Hiking Tours in New Zealand

1. New Zealand is best seen at close hand, whether that’s by boat or on foot, and sights like Milford Sound and Mount Cook are unforgettable parts of our Hiking tours in New Zealand.

2. On the South Island, Queenstown is the adventure capital of the Southern Hemisphere where endless activities are available, from rafting and bungee jumping to skydiving, paragliding, gorge swinging, heli-skiing and trekking.

3. Space, wilderness, clean air, glaciers, mountains and volcanoes: New Zealand trips have all the right ingredients for a great hiking and trekking tour. On the North Island we trek the Tongariro crossing, with the chance of an optional ascent of Mount Ruapehu.

4. The food on our trips to New Zealand isn’t bad either; the lush landscape and varied climate create some of the richest, most mouth-watering ingredients on the planet, and Wellington is the country’s culinary capital.

This is a lovely, varied trip for someone who wants to see as much of this wonderful country as possible in a short time – with someone else doing the many hours of driving required, and with someone who has invaluable local knowledge.

Karen Morrow Trails of New Zealand

I highly recommend this trip if you are an avid hiker. This country was one of the most beautiful I’ve been to. The guides both on the north and south Island were amazing. The group dynamic was top-notch. I was unsure about this trip, but I’m so glad that I committed and went on it. I would highly recommend this trip to anybody considering it.
