Use these route-linked adventures to plan the trails and traverses that sit inside this region.
Most itineraries use Whakapapa Village, National Park Village, and New Plymouth as the key access bases for Mount Ruapehu, Mount Ngauruhoe, and Mount Taranaki, with summit days linked by transfers rather than one continuous trail. Arrivals from the UK usually begin with london -> auckland, then domestic to taupo/new plymouth or road circuit before the route moves on between the mountain bases.
