A succinct but comprehensive guide to Te Urewera, Tongariro, Egmont and Whanganui national parks.

Written by two keen and experienced trampers, with the support of the Department of Conservation, this regional guide provides practical descriptions of every established walking track or route, as well as up-to-date information on access, track conditions, huts and campsites, and scenic attractions. Used in conjunction with the appropriate park map, it will reveal an enormous variety of walks and tramps which can be tailored to every person's capabilities and requirements, whether embarking on a week-long tramp or a short stroll from the carpark.
