Te Araroa Trail
The Te Araroa Trail, known as the “Long Pathway” is an amazing walking track traversing the length of New Zealand.
Starting at Cape Reinga in the Far North and finishing at Bluff in Southland, it is a mixture of older tracks and walkways and often link sections alongside roads. The trail winds along coastal sand, forested ridged ranges, farm land and volcanoes in the North Island, then across the national parks, huge valleys and mountain passes of the South Island.
