Hiking in New Zealand spans glacier-carved valleys, volcanic plateaus, and long coastal ridgelines. Walk the Milford Track through Fiordland, cross the Tongariro Alpine Crossing beneath Ruapehu and Ngauruhoe, or head into Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park for big alpine scenery. From the Rakiura Track to the Hollyford and Greenstone Caples, New Zealand rewards hikers who want drama at every turn.
