Self Drive Hiking & Walking Tours

Hiking Tour in New Zealand

With around 30 percent of New Zealand's land area being officially protected with public access, there's no shortage of hiking opportunities at all levels.

Whether you're looking for shorter walking tours up to a day long or a multi-day track through remote high country, you'll soon see why soaking up the breathtaking New Zealand scenery is a national past time and right of passage for generations of kiwis.
