If you are into really “hiking” then chose the first three options I mentioned, if you are happy to slog away for 5+hrs to get amazing views choose the second two. We need to be honest about these hikes and too many people rate these last two based on the views and forget that the actual “hiking” is below average for a keen hiker – they are just farm tracks which for a true ‘hiker’ are really quite boring!

Definitely planning a trip witness the beauty! Great info and breathtaking photos!

My mum and I are ‘saving’ New Zealand to do together. Hopefully we’ll be able to get some cool hikes in! Thanks for the great post 🙂
